A friend and I had the opportunity last week to enjoy a morning checking out the ArtPrize competition in Grand Rapids. It was a beautiful fall day and we had so much fun walking around the city and admiring all of the art. I was happy to come across this quilt in the competition. It's called No. 13 (The Ring) by Bruce Seeds.

It's called No. 13 (The Ring) by Bruce Seeds.
It's made from a single piece of fabric that is cut into triangles and then sewn back into hexagons! When the triangles for each hexagon are cut from the same placement in the fabric, it really looks like you are looking through a kaleidoscope. I think it's fun to see what was done with a single piece of fabric.
The quilt was beautifully constructed and really fun to see in person.
I can't wait to see the ArtPrize competition next year!
