Enjoy Your Labor Today, 61×72 inch art quilt by O.V. Brantley, 2014. For sale at ETSY.com/shop/ovbrantleyquilts

Often when I start a quilt I am influenced by what is going on around me at the time.  I finished piecing Enjoy Your Labor Today on Labor Day. I had chosen the bright colors for the quilt because I was still enjoying summer. Working on this quilt was a wonderful way to spend a holiday weekend. It is a happy quilt.

Enjoy Your Labor Today  is an art quilt that is large enough to be a lap quilt. It measures 61×72 inches. The quilt is composed of colorful bricks with a blue batik border. It is machine pieced and machine quilted by Ina Sanders.

The fabric on the back is a pink African print of tall ladies. There is a hanging sleeve on the back in case you want to hang the quilt and a label that documents the quilt.

This quilt is one–of-a-kind.  I signed it on the front. It is offered for sale in my ETSY Studio Store.

Whatever your task is today, I hope you find joy in doing it.
