Buttefly Quilt
 

Jane decided to have the piece quilted using a traditional wreath, a wonderful counter-balance to the modern feel of the quilt.

 

Butterfly Redux Quilt

Minimum time and effort produce maximum happiness...

Jane's Butterfly Redux brings to mind the Andy Warhol pop masterpieces of the 60's and 70's depicting variegated color iterations of pop stars Elizabeth Taylor and James Dean.  The repetition of the graphic motif in Jane's signature "wild" colors gives this quilt a decided modern and youthful feel, although you don't have to be a youngster to appreciate it's energetic appeal!

Jane also illustrates how to use her Diamonds to create a dynamic tension across the field of the quilt. Running the strips at right angles create a visual sense of vibration which helps balance the intensity of the colored Silhouettes.
