I was invited to make a quilt from 10 embroideries made about the Covid pandemic. These came from an embroidery training program for women in Bangladesh to provide them with skills they can market. The final quilt will be auctioned in North America as a fund raiser for the project. It was fun to find a way to combine these unique pieces with one of my ice dyed fabrics and also with a fabric I designed of a playful fish. The embroideries included references to a fishing dependent culture! The long arm quilting was done by Carolyn Reno and a donation for that was made by Bunnie Mauldin.

This is such a cool project and the embroideries are amazing! The quilt is a real window on how another culture is dealing with the pandemic.
Really lovely!
