See "Princess Warrior's Forest" by Cheryl Olson

Cheryl Olson's Princess Warrior's Forest has you walk along an unknown path through the dark forest, guided by the light.

Cheryl hand-dyed her background and then layered on fused pieces of hand-dyed cotton, silk, and organza. The dye process includes thickened dye, batik, resist, monoprinting, and screen printing.

Cheryl's quilt won First Place Art Quilt at the Chicago Quilt Festival.
