Audition for Señor Gaudí

44" x 79"

I have long admired the architect, Antoni Gaudí. When I visited Barcelona, I tried to view as much of his fantastic architecture as I could. This quilt was inspired by Guell Parc.

Photographs of tiles from Spain and Morocco, computer printed on fabric, cut up and repositioned, hand and machine appliquéd, and machine quilted.
