Fragments from the Lost Temple

Background

13/03/2001 - This quilt was inspired by the brilliant colours of Mexico and by the patterns found in the remains of the Maya and Aztec civilizations that once flourished there. Fragments of ancient temples and buildings can be glimpsed in the partially excavated sites. Free-hand cut and stitched, machine quilted. .
