Sunrise Over Salmon River

  • Dimensions: 14.5 x 14 inches

  • Pattern:  Inspired from The Art of Embroidered Flowers by Gilda Baron, c. 2004

  • Materials:  Habatai silk, cotton batting, fleece backing and binding

  • Construction:  Hand painted and embroidered, and machine quilted on a Bernina 165 by Charlee Banks in 2003-2007.

  • Notes:  The silk was painted using Susan L. Moyer’s “line building” technique
    which I learned in a silk painting class taught by Karen Sistek in 2003.
    “Sunrise Salmon” was a unique mixed color in Karen’s class.  I used it for
    the sky color and as a base for the other colors.  In 2007 I quilted and
    embroidered it.
