"Soul of the Southwest" by Debbie Corbett with Mike Corbett won The Gammill Master Award For Machine Artistry at Houston 22.
Artist's Statement:"Our love of Native American artwork inspired us to recreate an authentic serape quilt. The process began with selecting the correct quilt pattern, fabric colors, quilting designs, and thread colors. The quilt consists of 2,426 one-inch pieces, 12 different thread colors, and over one million quilting stitches. The 28 custom quilting designs were created from traditional vintage pottery artwork from the Acoma, Zuni, Hopi, and Navajo people."
