Betty Busby - "Lichen" a Houston 2017 Quilt

Houston Quilt Show Betty Busby Art Abstract Large

"Inspired by the endless variety of Lichen, a tough little family of plants that can grow even on bare rocks in the desert," Betty Busby (Show 2202) created her Lichen quilt using a mixture of machine appliqué, fusing, and painting. Marvel in the craftsmanship of the piece and it's use of silk and non-woven materials.

Lichen by Betty Busby of Albuquerque, New Mexico was featured in the Art-Abstract, Large category at Houston 2017.
