Abundance of Orchids
by Barbara Barrick McKie
On a trip to Florida, I was able to visit a number of orchid growers and capture images of these incredible flowers. This is the start of what should be a large series of orchid quilts as I have become an orchid lover! This is an unusual one, possibly Doritaenopsis nuevoparaiso.
Dye painted silk background and border, flowers are disperse dyed polyester. Machine appliqued and extensively free-motion machine quilted.
