This quilt is inspired by the red crossbill, a discreet mountain bird that feeds primarily in the treetops of conifers. The plumage patterns of both males (red) and females (yellow/green) mirror the tones of spruce cones.

​

The dyes are made using weld, a traditional colorfast dye renowned for its excellent lightfastness. The batting chosen for this quilt is thick, offering a wonderfully warm and plush feel.

​

Machine-pieced and hand-quilted with sashiko thread.
