Paying Homage: Celebrating the Diversity of Men in Quilts

In this quilt, Crum pays homage to a favorite animal, “Leo the Lion.” His love for the subject is further accentuated by the quilting patterns—the decorative stitching that holds the quilt together.
The quilting was done by Montika Allen-Atkinson.
