I hate photos of myself, but this is a view I can fully embrace. It's a bit self-referential, abstracted from a picture taken while I was hand sewing, itself sewn together and quilted. It echoes traditional quilting in its pieced block structure, but is very much me, lots of rich textured fabrics, shiny golds, and twinkling metallic threads. The abstract piecing and openwork structure make me think of looking at a reflection in a beautiful shattered mirror, almost kaleidoscopic.
