Avebury Stone Circle: By Dot Waring

Background

01/06/2009 - An interpretation of the neolithic monument Avebury Stone Circle, encompassing my interest of archaeology, textile arts and history. The colours were chosen to create the mystical effect of one of Britians ancient monuments. Technique acquired at North-West Quilt Association course at Frodsham under the tutor Effie Galletly. 60 x 80cm.
