Rejoice Always, 50 x 50 inch quilt, by O.V. Brantley, 2011. For sale at http://www.etsy.com/shop/ovbrantleyquilts.

For me, Black History Month is a time to Rejoice Always! The change I have witnessed in my lifetime makes me feel like a living, breathing history book.  Growing up in the segregated South I could barely imagine the life I have lived. My quilt Rejoice Always captures my gratitude perfectly.

Observe Black History Month by taking  a moment to whisper a prayer of gratitude for those who made it possible for you to live the wonderful life you live today.
