This quilt is mindblowing. It seems to be made with some variation of Hollis Chatelain's techniques - that is, both dye-painted and thread-painted - as far as I could tell. One of the quilters (Steen) was there and he said that they had watched this family of swans over a long period of time and this was a composite of several of the pictures they took.
