I had fun with this painting and enjoyed designing the individual patchworked elements. I wanted the blanket to signify warmth and safety but overall I hoped to achieve a dream-like nursery quality. The idea for the painting stemmed from a visit to the patchwork museum in York. I was stunned by some of the amazing designs which inspired the idea of a patchwork moon. I can’t sew so I painted my patchwork in watercolour.
