Swimming Upstream #3 is part of a new series. The moral of this series is, “Life may be hard, but there is beauty all around you.”
The quilts in this series are quilted by hand and made from luscious batiks that evoke thoughts of the beautiful Caribbean Sea. Like many of my quilts, Swimming Upstream #3 also features decorative buttons and inspirational words hidden in the quilt. This quilt is also embellished with handmade yo-yo's that are embellished with beads and buttons.
Swimming Upstream #3 measures 19 x 39 inches. It has a hanging sleeve on the back for easy display on a curtain rod. A label on the back documents the quilt, and I signed and dated it on the front.
