And In His Dreams He Heard the Surf Roar

This quilt, inspired by Hemingway’s Old Man and the Sea, features block printing of the traditional Storm at Sea patchwork design using acrylic paints. I hand printed the blocks onto a digitally printed image that I had taken of an ancient wooden fishing boat discovered languishing on a beach in Brittany, France. The colours of the many layers of peeling paint on the planks of the boat were a perfect inspiration. I added text using inkjet transfer onto hand painted fusible webbing and embellished the words with hand stitch. The quilt is both hand stitched and free motion machine quilted.
