| Manhole cover by Pamela. |
This is amazing! Pamela took my class last year and says she made the quilt above using my technique of Pattern Transfer to execute her fabulous design. Turns out Pamela is not only a quilt maker but is studying Japanese AND is a consultant working on sewer system infrastructure.
All three of her interests are covered in one book – Quilting with Manhole Covers (from Japan). After reading the book, an idea was born. And soon Pamela was commissioned to make a New Castle County manhole lid for a retiring engineer. (At the retirement party attendees could signed little sewer cover lids on the back of the quilt!) Her signature on the quilt reads “fabricated by Pam“.

I’m sure the group of engineers really enjoyed art that they could relate to. I, too, am a fan of sewers. Thanks Pamela for sharing your work with us!
