Looking Back

38"x 53"  2006

I was looking through old family photos and came across 4 shots that my father took.  They are of my sister, Connie and I, and when I saw the back view-inspiration struck!  I could make a 2 sided quilt!

Techniques: The face side is painted on 1 piece of fabric.  The back side is appliquéd using many fabrics to try to get the effect.  What a fun, challenging project!
