The quilt block used to create this quilt is the “disappearing nine patch”. It is a simple traditional block, but it inspired the message of the quilt. I embellished many of the blocks with a “vote” charm to carry out the message of the quilt.

There is a hanging sleeve on the back of the quilt, and a label that documents the quilt. I signed it on the front.

This quilt may be part of my solo exhibit Long Time Coming: A Retrospective Exhibit of O.V. Brantley’s Red and White Quilts scheduled for November 19, 2022 through January 13, 2023 at the Emma Darnell Aviation Museum and Conference Center.
