The block design I came up with is a combination of two of my improv favorites - strip piecing and quarter-square curves. The fourth color was added by chance when I ran out of Crush and found a color in my stash with the same value. Hard to believe, but if you take a photo of the quilt in black and white, it will look like the 3-color quilt I originally had in mind.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist Statement 2\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cem\u003e\"Regardless of the outcome, I am so incredibly proud of this piece and of each of the over 20,500 stitches I hand-quilted into it.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechniques Used\u003c\/strong\u003e: Machine Pieced, Improvisational Piecing, Hand Quilted\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e(Main Quilt Photo from quiltcon.com; Sign Photo from quiltingjetgirl.com)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ethylene Ziegler \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eQuilter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ethylene Ziegler \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eYear Made:\u003c\/strong\u003e NA \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eOwned By:\u003c\/strong\u003e NA \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 58 x 73 inches \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eShows \u0026amp; Museums:\u003c\/strong\u003e QuiltCon 2024 \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAwards:\u003c\/strong\u003e Best Hand Quilting (Sponsored by WonderFil Specialty Threads) at QuiltCon 2024 \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ethylene Ziegler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54046413160723,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0918\/4575\/5155\/files\/28283-solomons-stripes-ethylene-ziegler-45-1709677329.jpg?v=1776144471","url":"https:\/\/gallery.thequiltshow.com\/products\/solomons-stripes-ethylene-ziegler","provider":"The Quilt Show Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
