Into the Void

quilt with dark stars and bright red bands of light between the stars

Into The Void

QuiltCon 2026 – Modern Traditionalism
Quilt in the show feature in QuiltCon 2026 Magazine – Quilting Daily and the MQG

Traditionally pieced using cotton; dense quilting following the stars in 4 thread colors.

44″ x 55″ – completed October 2025

This quilt design was created as I explored the theme of searching for hope in the darkness. Is shining a small beam of light enough to find the way? The construction was a continuing experiment with how far I can stretch and pull and curve the sawtooth star block. It is entirely machine pieced and machine quilted following the movement of the stars. 

Status: Will be displayed at QuiltCon Raleigh, NC – February 19-22, 2026
