Spring quilt for sale

 


Here's another oldie but goodie that I'm listing for sale, for $175. It's 24 inches square.

The Kiowa saying expresses gentle reverence for the land: "Walk lightly in the spring; Mother Earth is pregnant." The Kiowa are indigenous to the Great Plains.


I stamped and outlined the letters on fabric that I painted in soft spring hues. The center panel is stamped with spirals, hands and forest animals ... 


... and unfurling ferns are beaded at the bottom. The crinkled sheer blue fabric represents rain.

This is one of my favorite quilts, but it's time for it to go to a new home and bring someone else pleasure. I just have too many quilts!


Have a colorful day
