Part 1: Designing the New Zealand Quilt

September 29, 2018 By Lisa Berentsen

When I was in New Zealand, I was incredibly lucky to see two glaciers that terminate in a rain forest. Walking up to view these waning phenomena, and catching glimpses of the sun and the glaciers’ ice spires through the rain forest vegetation was incredibly moving. Int his video, I discuss the design of a quilt that captures the colors and feel of the experience. In my next video, I’ll talk about the quilting.
