THE TRIANGLE
36 x 36 inches - $6500

The triangle is a shape often used in patchwork. It also represents the Greek letter “delta,” used as a symbol for change. When it is capitalized, “The Triangle” represents The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory — the site of a devastating fire that claimed the lives of 146 workers, mostly women, on March 25, 1911, in New York City. In the aftermath of the fire, changes were made to provide for greater workplace safety. This quilt includes 100 triangles to commemorate the centennial of the fire. It was designed to resemble a postage stamp.

Artwork will be available for shipping at the end of the following exhibition:
