Quilt is 20” by 22”


I love my time in Sanibel Florida. My inspiration is the Pink Flamingos that inhabit these tropical islands and the warm gulf waters.


My first with piecing a triangular background. I love the look and plan to use in another project.

The appliqué flamingo was a learning process as well. I used an exacto knife to cut the pink triangles. A bit laborious but was worth the time and effort.
The fabrics are a mixture of Cherrywood Fabrics and hand dyed fabrics. The pattern for the flamingo was found on a clip art website as a free download - artist unknown.


I have enjoyed the process and am learning new techniques each time I complete a new challenge.
