Tally Hall Ahh Pattern - Tumblr Posts

🌌 The Look Up, Look Up Quilt 🌌

This one was inspired by the Northern Lights and the polar landscape particularly Svalbard.

One thing about the Lights that photography can't capture is their movement. The colors might look brighter in photos but they way they dance in person is, for me, what makes them so magical which is what I wanted to try and capture with this quilt and if you look at it for a bit, the contrasting shapes and lines do make it appear to move.

The colors of the lights were dyed by myself using melting snow to apply the dye resulting in unique patterns and colors. The other fabric is from thrifted cotton sheets.

Machine pieced and hand quilted. Approx 60 inches in diameter
