Design Inspiration:

Libby Lehman's quilt "Rococo Riffs". I drew my inspiration from this piece from Libby's "Rococo Riffs" quilt. I took the swirls and joined them to make a block design on point. I repeated this design to make a block-on-point medallion. I loved the gradation in colors in Libby's quilt and tried to capture the same effect using many different colors of gold silk thread.
