Design Source - Description |
The strength and durability of its architecture spanning over the waterfront on a gray and rainy day last October inspired me to take a cell phone photograph just as we exited after our own trip on the bridge across the Bay. To translate that photo into a quilt several shades of hand dyed gray cotton were raw edge appliquéd on a gradient printed ground. Textile paint, fabric markers, computer printed graphics and free motion quilting were used to translate the photo into a pictorial quilt which I hope captures the essential grandeur of the San Francisco Bay Bridge. |
