My Better Angels, 68 x 78 inches, by O.V. Brantley, 2011.

I always feel I am surrounded by angels, but my latest quilt will provide tangible evidence. I named this quilt My Better Angels. Hopefully, these celestial ladies will remind me always to be my best self.

This quilt began with a block exchange between members of the Brown Sugar Stitchers Quilt Guild. Ina Sanders did the amazing quilting. Although you probably cannot see it in the picture, she quilted the words “Merry Christmas” and “Peace” in the background of the quilt. I sprinkled crystals on the quilt to give it extra sparkle.

My Better Angels will be part of my personal heirloom collection.
