The inspriation for this machine-embroidered, fabric collage came from a photograph I took of Noddy terns, nesting in the trees on Heron Island in Australia. The quilt was constructed in layers beginning with snippets on a dye-painted background, and building up to the fused appliqued birds on the top layer.
