"Celebration" is the second quilt in my "Silhouettes" series. Shortly before the quilting retreat that I made Dance,
my friend Edward, whom a group of friends and I had been witnessing to
for about a year, told me that he had become a Christian. I designed
this quilt in honor of him. "Celebration" is based on a verse in the
book of Luke that says how the angels celebrate and rejoice when a
person accepts Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord of their life. I
embroidered the verse in the bottom left hand corner of the quilt, and
the quilt's name in the upper right hand corner.
The instruments hold personal significance as well: my brother Shawn plays the saxophone, and my mother plays the flute. The middle angel is playing the tamberines because I couldn't draw a trumpet, the instrument that my youngest brother Kevin plays. |
