When I was a young teenager, my sister played the angel Gabriel in her class play. She had red hair. I made this quilt in 1995, intending to give it to her. But my angel looked like an alien. What to do? It puzzled me all theses years: how to change that alien to an angel. Last year, I found a stencil of an angel that fit just right. I had just taken a fabric painting class. The timing was perfect. The alien became an angel and I finally was able to send the angel quilt off to its proper owner. Thanks for being an angelic presence in my life, Anne.
