Description
This quilt constructed in 1889 was passed down to a friend of mine (Solana D'Lamant). In 2005 she asked me to photograph the quilt. Not an easy task, to get high enough or far away enough to get it all in one frame. I resorted to taking a 'patchwork' of photos and piecing them together for Sunny. The image here is only a partial image of the whole. Sunny told me the story of the quilt and how it was made and passed down. The poem dated 4.9.2005 (using the 'gift line' indicated) was a result of our conversation and my photographing the quilt. I presented the photo of the entire quilt and poem to Sunny the next day, which was her birthday. My friend passed away 12.31.2016. As tribute and gift I have superimposed the poem over part of the quilt to create this poster. NOTE the date "1889" stitched into the piece second from the top, left hand side.
