Q153 – Frente – New Quilt, Wall-Hanging – Part 2

Good Day,

In collaboration with Ya Levy La’Ford, (http://yalaford.com/), Andy and I would like to introduce to you to our 153rd quilt, Frente.

Frente - YL, AB, and JS - 2017


Frente is the expression of how communities should strive to work very together.  A unified and cohesive community can center itself around a singular goal.  All borders and boundaries are crossed over to create a singular and moving unit..

Frente is a quilted wall-hanging composition created of 45 “pot-holder” quilts placed in a prescribed pattern on the surface of its companion piece Espalda. All-things-being-equal Espalda can stand by itself.

Please check out Espalda, our companion collaboration and our 152nd quilt.

The unified dimension of Frente is 72” wide by 48” long. It is composed of 100% cotton from SewBatik. The black strips are appliquéd. The quilting design is simple in order to allow the design be the message.

All 45 Frente mini-quilts are backed with corresponding Velcro dots. These dots are the means we used to attach the mini-quilts of Frente to Espalda.
