I am truly honored to be part of this historic quilt recreation. This incredible project reimagines Washington Crossing the Delaware as a textile landscape mural. The fabric artist brought the scene to life by creating the boat and Washington’s men as individual, flat thread-painted appliqué pieces. I had the privilege of longarm quilting the expansive printed background panel, measuring 110″ x 67″. 

The background panel for my longarm quilting is minus the foreground icebergs, the ship and Washington and his men.  The panel measures 110 x 67 inches and had to be quilted across it’s entirety.  Later the design items will be appliqued in place.  

Stay tuned for updates on this incredible piece! I’ll be sharing photos of the work in progress soon, and I can’t wait to show you how it’s coming together.
