I’d never made a quilt like this before: I sat down and made a miniature version out of construction paper—about the size of a postcard—and then scaled it up for the fabric version. Working that way allowed me to see compositional tensions and balances that I feel I was able to keep in the final version. (Sidenote: the quilt is named in honor of my favorite PBS Newshour host, Judy Woodruff.)
