Here is a quilt by Kristin that I posted previously in July 2007. But now I have some detail shots and an image of the back of the quilt. That earlier post is at:
"Village Series #7: To Be Uprooted" Kristin La Flamme 2007 12" X 12"
Machine pieced, hand and machine quilted.
I don't know if Kristin is still working on this series, but one of the nice things about a series is that it never has to end. Even after the passage of years one can revisit the idea and continue adding new work.

This row of houses is stamped on fabric and then color added. The roots are a monoprint on striped fabric.
The piece Flying Geese on the left are in contrast to the "rootedness" of the houses. Kristin slipped in a little map here. She knows lots about maps as an Army wife who has recently moved with her family again - this time to the east coast.
As you can see on the label this quilt was created while the family was stationed in Germany. I like that all the stitches show on the back.
