Protection Blanket

This quilt is the one that we are presently hanging in our home. The central diamond is embellished with sequins.

Light – reflecting materials such as mirrors, beads, sequins, and white shells are associated with protection as they are thought to have the ability to ward off evil and thereby preserve fertility in many cultures world wide.

Protection Blanket is number 42 on my list of one hundred quilts.

This is beautiful, it seems to emminate light from itself. It's amazing to me when color can do this.
