Chesapeake Trip
Around the World
by Donna Sharp
Signature
Collection
Quilts in the Signature line are detailed and
complex pieces. Each one is an intricate
design made with fabrics that are unique to Donna
Sharp. Donna personally approves every piece
of material used. Weeks, and even months, can
be spent in perfecting the layout of the fabrics
within the design. Once approved and ready for
actual creation, each quilt is painstakingly
handmade. Thousands upon thousands of tiny
pieces are measured, cut and then stitched together
by hand and machine. It can take hundreds of
hours to create one Full/Queen.
Trip Around the World works with
slightly larger pieces than the Postage Stamp, and
begins with one central block. Two-inch
squares create a new world for the next color to
move around until the final layer, creating a
diamond edging. By using identical fabrics in
these two quilts, you can see how pivotal the
piecing and design is in the quilt's final effect on
the room.
