Here's a colorful quilt from The Quilt Show favorite Helen Godden of Australia. Rainbow Lorikeet was hand-painted and then free-motion quilted in a variety of colors.
You will want to see all the different quilting designs in the white area. WOW!
Helen says:
"The Rainbow Lorikeet soars swiftly and with grace through the tree tops like a colorful dart. The bright primary colors of this Australian parrot are captured in detail, painted on the stunning white silk sateen, and surround by a burst of rainbow graded stitching celebrating his beautiful colors."
Helen's quilt won Honorable Mention, Art-Painted Surface at Houston 2012.
