"By day the Lord directs His love, at night His song is with me. A prayer to the God of my Life. Psalm 42:8". These words give comfort and encouragement, day or night!
This wall quilt employs several sewing and quilting techniques. It also features several fabrics in various shades of blues and greens.
The first "day" column features hand quilted leaves and separate machine stitched leaves attached to create a three dimensional effect. The second "day" column features a hand appliqued flower, sun and a mound of "soil" embellished with cotton and silk ribbon "grass".
The first"night" column showcases hand appliqued fireflies with lacy transparent wings on a background of stars and swirls. The fireflies' tail illuminations are constructed from yellow cotton fabric overlaid with gold organza. The antennas are accented with sparkling glass beads. The second "night" column features echo quilted stars using silver metallic thread. Silver sequins, glass beads and silver thread create tiny darting fireflies lighting up the night sky.
The scripture verse is hand embroidered with single strand brown embroidery floss. The back of the quilt is a combination of fabrics from the front of the quilt and a line of large green rickrack downs the center. The top of the quilt has three large color coordinated sleeves, which allows the quilt to be hung securely from a wooden lath strip. (strip not included)
The entire quilt is bound with a coordinating binding of order blue, green and print fabrics. This quilt measures 35 inches wide by 38 inches long.
