The Light of Christ

Sewn and embroidered quilt

“This work is meant to convey in a humble way my love for the Savior and His words and works. The sun represents His light, which gives life to all His creations. The circles are symbolic of worlds He has created, with each depicting a scene representing what He has done for each of us in word and deed. His holy names are quilted all around the outer border. My desire is for those who view the quilt to feel peace and love in its design.”
