Double Star is located in an idyllic Fairbanks neighborhood on a backyard shed owned by barn quilt enthusiast Clara Anderson. Clara heard about the Far North Quilt Trail and reached out for a personalized commissioned piece. I met with Clara, and she showed me her extensive quilt collection made by beloved family members and shared with me that her favorite color is green.
I color designed this "double star" block and began painting. Double Star was a total of 9 hours of labor from start to finish over the course of several days.
Thank you for participating in the trail and for supporting a local visual artist Clara!
