INUKSHUK

An Inukshuk in the shape of a person signifies safety, hope and friendship. These stone sculptures were also important for navigation, as a point of reference, as a marker for hunting grounds, or to denote a food cache. I made this wall hanging when I was in a workshop with Jennifer Houlden in October. I learned new techniques such as free motion zigzag/satin stitch, pieced binding to finish off the quilt, creating your own fabric with a variety of fabrics using a fusible stabilizer.
