Mai Tai, my design, hand embroidered and beaded by me. |
This was published in Art Quilting Studio, summer 2014.
My batik stash was calling to me, I made some strip fabric and cut blocks from it and arranged them with sashing, then added a couple of borders and the embellishment. The citrus colors and brown reminded me of the Tiki culture, Mai Tai drink with citrus and rum flavors. Just the thing for August.
