Three Legacy Ships
Three ships, one ocean story. My quilt honors CUSS 1, Glomar Challenger and JOIDES Resolution and traces ocean drilling history from Project Mohole to IODP. Photos printed on fabric, a gold "drill pipe" quilting shows clockwise rotation, and Civil War potholder piecing joins the blocks. JOIDES Resolution Expedition 390 quilt.
Rolly's Take
For those who find beauty in the intersection of science and craft, this blog whispers a tale of exploration through fabric. It speaks to the curious soul who honors history, celebrating the silent legacies of research vessels as much as the art crafted in their names. Here, creativity becomes a tapestry, weaving together threads of knowledge and memory from the depths of the ocean.
