Lenore Crawford's quilt, Emma in the Looking Glass, had us mesmerized. How was she able to use fabric to create such a realistic "reflection" in the quilt?

Emma in the Looking Glass won Outstanding Art Quilt at Road to California 2017.

Started in 2015, Finished in 2016-

Artist statement: My design was created using my raw edged fusing technique. I was inspired by photos I took of my friends' granddaughter searching for frogs in my mother's lily pond. I used a very tiny amount of fabric paint to add fine detail too small to fuse. Textural fabrics added to the detail created and some fabric was dyed while others were hand painted in the design.
