“Poppies” by Mary Ellen Coe
Although in Vietnam (not WWII) Mary Ellen’s dad was a POW for almost 7 years. She always loved poppies and the
representation of our remembrance of those who so selflessly served. She found the background in a fat quarter
bundle and it was just perfect. She tried her hand at ‘thread painting’ with this, as well as 3-dimensional poppy
flowers. It typically hangs in her quilt studio.
