Exhibition History
Although this small quilt is included in the Manitoulin Circle Project, it has two differences.  Rather than hang on the sanctuary walls like the other four large meditation panels,  this piece is intended to hang in front of the pulpit and is called an antipendium in the united church.  Only Judy Martin's hands worked on this piece.
