Columns Completed

Columns without the distinguishing “shell” on the top. These are pieced. The shells will be “needle turned” in order to create curves. These represent the columns on each side of the doorway when exiting the CBOT to Jackson Boulevard at LaSalle Street. Once the shells were attached the columns were placed on the background.  Notice the colors of the inspiration quilt shown on the right.  My drawing is on the left.
