Winters End ( 50 cm X 75 cm) came about as a result of a trip through the Eastern Free State literally at the end of winter, just before the first spring rains. The Earth was bone dry and the grass not much better off. This is my interpretation of that time.
Close up of the Winters End quilting.The one thing that contributed the most to the success of this piece was the use of acrylic felt as batting. It quilted easily and did not "puff up" the quilt and contributed to the texture of the piece without overwhelming it.
