I go to Butterfly World in Margate, FL as often as I can. It is a kind of paradise, filled with butterflies, lush vegetation, orchids, waterfalls, humming birds and koi. The last are carp which have been cultivated in Japan for their beauty and vivid coloring. To throw a handful of fish food into the water is to set the surface boiling with greedy mouths. Techniques and materials: hand dyed and commercial cottons, silks, pieced,
appliqué, trapunto, quilted with metallic thread. This work was chosen to tour for a year with Sulky of America's 1999 trunk show. Hangs from a rod through a sleeve sewn on the back.
