Murphy's Life

When Murphy's cancer recurred in late 2001, I wanted to make her a quilt. But I definitely did not want it to be an illness quilt, so I decided to quilt into it images from Murphy's life. There is a different image quilted in each of the blue and brown blocks. Unfortunately, my feeble skills with a camera does not allow you to see what the images are from this photo. If you know Murphy, you will just have to fill in the blanks yourself.

The fabric in this quilt was - with one exception - brought back to me from Japan by my parents.
