For the past week, I've been working on a commission for a couple in Portland who wanted me to make a piece using colors from their bed quilt and a rug they have in their bedroom. They wanted a big piece for over the head of their bed that wouldn't smash them if they ever experience an earthquake.
I sent them photos of the finished product today, and even though I got pretty loose with the color scheme, they said they loved it. It's a thrill for me because they're a couple with great artistic taste (judging from the art in their home), and both of them are artists...she's a wonderful photographer and he's a painter.
Here's a photo of the quilt and a couple of detail shots.
The quilt is 39 1/2" x 47".
This quilt is in keeping with my "Circles" series, which I've now re-named (per my wise brother Joe's winning suggestion) my "Portals" series. So that makes this one "Portals #4."

This is a wonderful quilt. Great work. I am one of the original artful quilter web members and I am surfing from Diane, backwards, to see who is new here! I have lived in Portland for a little over a year and Terry is a great friend.
