This heavily embellished story quilt features a nude figure huddled on the ground eating grass. Its dreadlocks are heavily beaded; the fingernails are freshwater pearls. Surrounding the center panel is a wildly pieced border, also beaded. Across the top are the words, "And those who walk in pride He is able to humble."
