Artist Statement
Flower Power is a statement used in the sixties and seventies to empower and inspire peace! I used Ricky Tims' hand-dyed fabrics. Brightly hand-dyed fabrics were very popular during the period. The abstract flower is pieced and then embellished with Swarovski crystals. I used Ricky's "dancing squares" border technique. The piece was hand-guided, longarm quilted, with domestic machine embellishments.
