“When designing quilts, I often give myself challenges to work with shapes I’m not comfortable with. I had done some designs working with curves, but I challenged myself to make a block that mixed curved piecing with rectangles or squares. While playing, I came up with this design. I was immediately drawn to the way the shapes reminded me of some of the bridges I’ve seen while exploring Oregon while visiting family. I chose these colors because they remind me of the way bridges are often decorated for the holidays.” –Anne Sullivan
