    Marco’s Brain 63 x 88 . This quilt was done in collaboration with my 12 year old nephew Marco. This quilt is a glimpse into his very imaginative and sometimes silly mind. All of the animals outside the jars were paper pieced together. The octopus was hand embroidered.

    I love this quilt. As the mom of two boys I can so relate. What a treasure.
