The West Wing


This is my latest Priority Quilt. I sent in the registration today . . .

Width: 11.5” Length: 9”

Materials/techniques: Background is commercial fabric, White House is printed on lutradur. Tree is Rust Tex and scraps of green commercial fabrics. Clouds are Angelina. TV set is made of etal painted black with a glossy print of the white house for a “screen”. Flag is a party toothpick.

Artist's Statement: I was lucky enough to read Ami’s blog at the right time when she was offering Allison Janney signature blocks. I wanted to do something different with it – something that said “West Wing” so I came up with the White House idea. This was fun!
