Awaken!

Violinist Damien Escobar has a song called "Awaken". This quilt was inspired by his song.

"Awaken!" is a brightly colored quilt that measures 60x72 inches. The bright colors seem to demand that you wake up and get going and that you do so happily. In the center of the quilt, an African woman looking up at the sun carries out the theme. The African woman was created by Julia Cairns for Timeless Treasures fabrics.

Because of its size, "Awaken!" can function as a lap quilt or a wallhanging. It is machine pieced and quilted.
The pattern is called "Corn Maze". The dominant color is yellow but it also features many brightly colored batiks.

The fabric on the back is a bright orange and yellow African fabric. There is a hanging sleeve on the back in case you want to hang it, and a label that documents the quilt. I signed it on the front.

This quilt makes me happy. I hope it will make you happy too.
