The idea of this piece was to include a variety of colourful split circles appliquéd onto split squares - the theme of roundness is repeated often throughout the Yurt since it has a circular structure. To underline this theme of opposites, the circles have been quilted with a wonky cross hatch and the background of the squares have been quilted with a pebble design. Unusually, there is a printed tweed-effect fabric amongst the plain cottons. Gold fabric paint was used instead of gold lamé on three of the full ”moons” partly because I forgot to include any and decided it looked naked without it!
