Student's Work


With each of my 6 Sew Pieceful Bee gift exchange pieces, I have attempted to find a personal connection between me and the work's recipient through the creative process.  Student's Work was no different.  It was made for Dot Collins, a retired engineer and quilt teacher, who has been inspiring her students for over 30 years.  She was my first quilt-class teacher.  The two students in Student's Work are her grand-daughters, Reese and Taylor.  Though I worked from photos of the girls supplied by Dot's daughter, Tracy, I made a number of modifications to come up with this design.
