African Quilt Market (Part Three), 374/100 African Canvas Memory Quilt series, 15 x 30 inches, by O.V. Brantley, 2008.
African Quilt Market (Part Three) was donated to the State Bar of Georgia. It was sold at auction June 20, 2009. Proceeds benefit the good works of the State Bar of Georgia. Although I do not know the name of the buyer, I am sure it found a good home.
The Lady is a Lawyer was created especially for auction at the annual conference of the Women of Color Attorneys. It raised a whopping $1800 for the scholarship fund and went off to its new home in Chicago.
The Lady is a Lawyer is a large piece measuring 56 x60 inches. The fabric on the back of the quilt is one of the “Red Hat” fabric lines complete with hats and high heels. The front of the quiltis heavily embellished with inspirational words, beads, buttons and charms. The sashing and binding is purple.
The Lady is a Lawyer is #75 of 100 of the series. This special quilt marks the 75% completion point of the African Canvas Memory Quilt series.
