La Catrina by Cindy Stohn (Arizona)
This incredible wall quilt won the Award of Merit from the NACQJ (National Association of Certified Quilt Judges), La Catrina was inspired by a photo by Jamie Emery of Rose Street Photography.
It was constructed without paint or fusibles. Layers of hand cut fabric pieces creating the image and features were appliqued during free motion quilting on a hand dyed background. We took many closeup photos to capture the details.
