red hands

This is a small quilt that was made as a gift for Martha.
It\s sari silk piecwork and cotton embroidery.

Several of us made small pieces that were to be put into a book.  I wonder what that book looks like? Maybe I will see it some day hint hint.

I believe the date was around 1999.  I'll check and make an edit if this is incorrect.
