This quilt is based on a photo taken by my mother, Nancy DeVries, as she was sailing north up the east coast to Maine with an overnight stop in the port of Portsmouth, NH. A lone fisherman just beyond the entrance is fishing at sunrise. I used over 70 different thread colors and digital thread painting in order to achieve the sophisticated blending needed to adequately express such an incredible sunrise. Batik fabric binding. I absolutely love this sunrise.
