A friend commissioned me to make this portrait of the area where she does her zoology fieldwork. The quilt is based on the many photos that she has taken there, and photos of the specific species of animals and plants that live in the fen. To see details of the quilt, click on the photo above. The story of the creation of this quilt can be found on my blog.
