Artist Statement
We now live in an age where everyone is talking of global warming, but things that are not in plain sight, don’t get the attention they need. Tropical rainforests are a very sensitive and delicate web of life and much endangered. I made this quilt to raise awareness of the need to protect flora and fauna within the rainforests of this world.

Techniques & Materials
The base of the quilt is hand dyed fabric from Artfabric®/IL, the greens are hand dyes by Judy Robertson, WA and me. I used Misty Fuse® to appliqué the leaves. The stitching is mostly 50 wt. cotton by Aurifil® and YLI® 100 Silk, some variegated Valdani® 40wt. cotton.
