Alaskan Fireweed

This wall quilt features the Alaskan Native flower, Fireweed.  There is a little poem about the end of fireweed's season when the beautiful red blooms turn white and fluffy.  My friend Sharon brought me the fireweed fabric from Alaska when she went there for a vacation.  t's a very simple "3 color quilt" made with large blocks and goes together in only a couple hours.  I'll hang it after Labor Day to signal the summer's end.
