Quilted Prayer Rug

As part of the  Quilted Prayer Rugs  initiative, I designed and made this small piece, using traditional shapes from Colonial American quilts and Islamic tile to create a prayer rug that's infused with elements of two cultures. It's finished with interlocking diamond-shaped quilting and backed with a linen blend material. The finished piece has been donated to my neighbor's mosque, where it is displayed as a wall hanging.
