Nene of Haleakala

This was inspired by the watercolor painting of Maui artist Sherri Reeve who gave me permission to interpret her painting for a bird themed quilt challenge for our guild.  I tried to stay true to her colors using mostly commercial batiks.  It reminds me of spending time up at Haleakala National Park hiking and photographing nenes, as well as other birds, vegetation, and the scenery of the beautiful park. It is part of the travelling exhibit called Feather Your Nest With Quilts by the Quilters' Sew-Ciety of Redding, Inc. which will be shown at several venues during 2016-2017.

Please tell Sherri that you saw a picture of the quilt! It is part of an exhibit of 48 bird quilts that will be travelling to several quilt shows for the next year.
