This quilt pays tribute to my favorite time of day, the sunrise. To me, the sunrise represents a feeling of opportunity and possibility. Every morning it is a little different from the day before and, across the seasons, it changes dramatically. The pattern works well with a wide range of solid or printed fabrics, and the mood, themes, and season of the quilt will change according to your choices. Here, I’ve used sherbet shades to make it feel fresh and summery.
