Quilts

The images shown below were inspired by the quilts made by the African American women in Gee’s Bend, Alabama and the Amish women in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana. These images are photographic composites made from macro photos of flowers I shot in my yard and on my walks in my neighborhood. I selected and modified quilt patterns, then used photos in part or in whole for the color blocks. The stitching on the quilts is replaced by the texture of the flowers.
