This quilt was a product of my time with Bee Sewcial. My bee mates were provided with a prompt to create a block that captured the essence of Sonia Delaunay (a 20th Century French Painter). Sonia co-founded the Orphism art movement, noted for its use of strong colors and geometric shapes. I believe that my highly talented bee mates did quite well in accomplishing this prompt. The way that I have arranged the blocks, the quilt has the feeling of Sonia’s painting series called “Rhythme.” The quilt was quilted with a domestic sewing machine with each fabric color being uniquely quilted with matching thread.
