Design Inspiration:

Inspired by "Drift" by Libby Lehman. I was inspired to make this quilt by Libby's "Drift". Libby Lehman has been such an inspiration to me in many ways. She is a pioneer in the quilting industry and an amazing woman. I used many different machine techniques to emulate Libby's "thread play" while placing my own style on the piece as well.
