I cannot be seen, heard, felt, smelled or tasted. History records my passing. I am time. Find the rings symbolizing 60 seconds/minutes, 365 days, 25 world time zones. Clock faces declare the hours. Look for the four seasons, leap year and words quilted in outer space. |

Asante Sana Jesu is Swahili for "Thank you very much, Jesus". I made it following my husband's trip to Kenya where he worked with the Masai people. The back is made from a khanga, the traditional clothing of the Masai women. The design is a variation of the kaleidoscope block. The border is entirely pieced. Hand quilted with 4½ spools of thread; trapunto, beading and painting. |

Trained as a painter, this was my first attempt at quilt making. Three years in the making, it started as a throw pillow (no pattern) and grew organically over many months. I wasn't sure it was a bed quilt until I added the borders! Quilted by Cathy Franks. |
