Fabric portrait of Michelle Obama appliquéd on a near solid bright yellow background. In the image, Obama appears to turn, looking slightly over her left shoulder. Her hair is quilted into a low bun and her face is created from artful placement of blue and purple fabrics with paint accenting the eyes and lips. She is wearing a shawl of what appears to be a blue, yellow orange and brown African wax cloth; that shawl is draped 3-dimensionally, rising off the surface of the quilt. The artist, who had been legally blind most of her life, had laser eye surgery prior to making this quilt and deliberately chose colors for their vibrancy and intensity now that she could see them clearly.
