167cm x 143cm cotton, machine pieced and quilted.
A collaboration with composer Keyna Wilkins and violinist Airena Nakamura. I commissioned Keyna to write a piece of music on the theme of the magpie to celebrate my 70th birthday. She based the music on the song of the magpie and the Aboriginal story of how magpies lifted the shroud that blanketed the earth, revealing the sun. My quilt is a response to the music and is the third in a series responding to the lockdown from Covid 19.
