Greatful For Another Happy Day #1

I try to keep gratitude at the fore front of my life. I even keep a gratitude journal just to make sure I never forget to be grateful for all things big and small. It is life changing.

I often incorporate the word gratitude in my quilts, but now I have created a whole series focused on gratitude. The series is
"Grateful For Another Happy Day", and there will be 7 quilts in this series. Each of the quilts starts with a panel of a beautiful, joyful African woman by Julia Cairns.

"Grateful For Another Happy Day #1" measures 30x34 inches. The dominant color is orange in a mixture of batiks and African fabrics. It is pieced and quilted on my machine.

The fabric on the back is a leaf motif on a black background. There is a hanging sleeve for easy display and a label that documents the quilt.

I signed and dated the quilt on the front. "Grateful For Another Happy Day #1" is one-of-a-kind.
