My love affair with Wisconsin continues in the pursuit of the prairie. Once vast and almost endless, we now cultivate prairies in sanctuaries.

Every year I visit my home state of Wisconsin to renew my relationships with family, friends and the land. This yearly pilgrimage realigns my work unexpectedly; I am swayed by its charms.

In the first two quilts of this series, I pictured the wall at the top of the "grass." Here, the wall is part of the grass itself.
