DescriptionColorful rectangular quilt. The top half has a diamond pattern with bright oranges at the center surrounded by white and black lines. As the design nears the center, the whites turn to greens, and the orange diamond is replaced by a red and black diamond. The design then bleeds into blues at the bottom half, which has an entirely different pattern of horizontal lines like waves of shades of blue."Earth Quilts are my silent voice joining the choir of women worldwide, using the universal language of love and the beauty of patchwork to express a heartfelt desire for peace and social and environmental justice, shared globally." - Meiny Vermaas-van der Heide
