Art quilt Butterscotch, designed and created to brighten inspire and uplift any space with a joyful soft texture.
Hand dyed fabrics hand quilted complete a one of a kind modern textile art piece. I use yarn to quilt through three layers of textile it will change organically it is the nature of the material (wool, alpaca, cotton, or recycled water bottles). Each stitch travels through then is pulled back again only a little so that it is not tight -by design to create softness in the appearance, this is why some distinct areas are loose with yarns for shadows to play creating dimensional effect.
Since textiles used are often hand dyed spot clean only.
Easy hanging for display, rod pocket sewn on reverse, this piece has wooden dowel included.
Butterscotch will be carefully shipped wrapped in plastic gently rolled within a tube, wooden hanging dowel included
