In 2007, I had the opportunity to work on a collaborative project with her: http://fiberfocus.blogspot.com/2008/06/inter-american-quilt-project-by-allison.html<br /><br />We made three queen size panels for a bi-lingual school in Chicago. She painted the world on silk, kids made collages that were transferred and appliqued on to the piece and I did the quilting and assembly.<br /><br />It was one of the most challenging pieces I ever did and I loved working out the process for it with her. She has a keen mind and her work is truly beautiful!Rachel Bielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14804950102480086440noreply@blogger.com
