Kathy Lichtendahl - Jacques World

"As difficult as it is to imagine in today's world, I grew up in a household with one black and white TV and one station (CBC) that was on air for about half of each day.  One of my favorite shows to watch was the 'World of Jacques Cousteau' and this quilt is my tribute to that master of the sea.  Many techniques were used in an attempt to depict the creatures on the quilt:  beading, embroidery, painting and the use of Angelina fibers are but a few.  The snorkeler at the top of the quilt is enjoying his view of the strange land below."
