"Kaleidoscopic XII: Up Close and Far Away" by Paula Nadelstern
 

 

 

  
   
  "Kaleidoscopic XII: Up Close and Far Away" (80 by 82 inches, 1994) was machine pieced and hand quilted. This quilt represented a giant leap along Paula's creative path: instead of positioning images against a neutral ground, she treated the background as an important design element. The quilt is featured in Kaleidoscopes & Quilts by Paula Nadelstern (C&T Publishing, 1996). Photo by Karen Bell.
