Geri deGruy's blog of art, musings, and inspiration

When I visit Indiana, I am smack-dab in the middle of Amish country.  Amish women are known for their beautiful quilts, mostly hand-pieced and hand-quilted, using solid color fabrics.  This wall hanging is my contemporary take on an Amish quilt, using solid colors only, but with a twist here and there, and sewn on a machine.  

The Amish are known as the plain people.  I call this quilt "Plainsong", a piece with variations on the theme.
