Jungle Parrot
(40 x 29 inches)
1996
Detail

This was my first quilt. I found the pattern in a needlework pattern book, and enlarged it on the photocopier. I had sheet fabric, with many different areas of color, which I cut from to form the various areas of the parrot. I used light and dark aqua zigzag stitching on the face of the parrot (see detail). The parrot was made separately and then attached to the background.
