Gossip While You Work #4 Completes the Series

I suppose it's time for the gossiping ladies to stop gossiping and focus on their work. Gossip While You Work #4 is the last quilt in this series of quilts. The other quilts in the series have all found new homes. Hopefully this one will too.

Gossip While You Work #4 measures 41 x 49 inches. In this quilt the gossiping ladies are surrounded by turquoise, brown and black borders. The quilt is signed and dated.

Gossip While You Work #4 is offered for sale in the Clara Ford Foundation EBay Store.

Standing Strong and Tall #1 Offered for Sale

I admire strong women, surprise surprise. Standing Strong and Tall #1 is a tribute to strong women everywhere. The women in this quilt are strong and tall and proud of it! Check out their provocative poses. Look at their vibrant dress. They are clearly comfortable with who they are.

Standing Strong and Tall #1 measures 34 x 50 inches. The purple sashing is embellished with buttons and beads. There is a hanging sleeve on the back for easy display. As are all of my quilts, it is signed and dated.

Standing Strong and Tall #1 is currently being auctioned through the Clara Ford Foundation Ebay Store.

Gossip While You Work #3 Finds a New Home

Gossip While You Work #3 was recently sold to one of my most dedicated collectors in Atlanta. This quilt is part of a four-quilt series. Each quilt starts with the African ladies in the center. To me, they appeared to be gossiping as they went about their daily tasks, hence the name.

Gossip While You Work #3 measures 39 x 43 inches. It is signed and dated.
