    Not sure if this has been posted before but I just ran across it ... this is amazing!!

    In 2007, Ree Nancarrow accepted a commission to create a fabric art piece for the new Eielson Visitor Center, 66 miles from the park entrance near the base of Mount McKinley. Beginning with white cotton fabric, she fashioned "Seasons of Denali," a remarkable panoramic representation of the Eielson area using dyes, paints, silkscreens, stencils, and oil sticks. A local resident for almost 45 years, Nancarrow began exploring quilting as an artistic medium in the early 1990s.
