My mom found this fabric at a garage sale in Florida, and it’s said to be an authentic vintage block print of waves. The piece is titled for the famous work: Under the Wave off Kanagawa. This quilt is improvisationally machine pieced and hand quilted with sea-foam colored thread. The back is delicately finished with hand stitches and ‘quilting tacks.’ The other fabrics are hand dyed by me, with a cotton muslin frame. My signature is hand embroidered.
