This detailed close-up portrait of a pair of wolves, was the inspiration for tonight’s Free Quilt Portrait. The steady gaze of the smaller wolf feels like being in the presence of a wild soul.
To make this 49″ x 57″ quilt design, you will start with the 36″ x 44″ intimate wildlife portrait. The fine brushstrokes and realistic details in the eyes brings a startling intimacy to the image. You will use 2 Stonehenge texture blenders, and 2 Hoffman Hand-Dyes, to make the “Wolf Track” blocks for the top and bottom panel, then finish with border and binding.
The Wolf is considered a strong Totem, symbolizing protection, freedom, loyalty, and self-control. The wolf pair also represent companionship and cooperation. The wolf pack has a strong family bond, and so the ‘medicine animal’ meaning is about the deep connection of family ties.
…from the ‘Warm Summer Days’ collection by Four Seasons of David Textiles.
