SPHINX QUILT

Inspired by costume patterns and set illustrations of the early 20th century avant-garde theater, the collection is structured around bringing patterns together that alternate between expressive bold prints and disciplined fine ink line. Organic pods, plumes, scallops, and florals are abstracted and reinterpreted by hand drawing. The palette is drawn from Indian miniature paintings - vermilion and rose, kohl and tarnished gold, pale stone and warm sandalwood - colors that read mineral and time-softened. Sphinx is mysterious, bold and ancient-feeling. Our reversible quilt, made by hand over many months, consists of block-printed cotton and natural cotton fill. Each quilt is hand-stitched using a traditional unknotted running-stitch technique. - King / Queen: 100 x 108 inches - 100% cotton, stitched with cotton thread - Dry clean suggested
