It all started with Edyta Sitar's first show on TQS. 160 quilters from around the world participated in this exchange. The quilt's roots are from the exchange, where a quilt (tree) grew. I quilted little fairies and magical creatures into the quilt to show how we all participated in the growth of this tree quilt. There are about 700 HSTs on it. |
