This quilt was designed to feature the hand-painted background fabric, which had been given to me by a friend. The mermaid is adaped from a stencil. Her hair is variegated chenille yarn which I couched to the quilt. Beads and gemstones are used for embellishment. Her body is made from suede fabrics.
