Native Woman by Isabel Munoz Bueno (Pozuelo de Alarcon, Madrid, Spain).
This quilt was inspired by a photograph by Yulia Brodskaya a renowned quilling paper artist (reproduced with permission). Isabel Munoz Bueno explains, "When I saw [the photo], I asked myself what would happen if I tried to take it to my field and make a quilt. It was a magnificent opportunity, and this is the result - a colorful quilt in which the native woman transmits an incredible security and inner strength through her eyes... strength forged through generations that will be passed down to future generations."
In the closeup photo below you can see the way in which Isabel used thread painting to create different colored segments that make up the design.
The original paper quilling work by Yulia Brodskaya can be seen at the El Hurgador blog. Isabel Munoz Bueno did an incredible job translating this piece into fabric art.
