Description:
Created in homage to a phrase spoken by African American slaves, "A Sunday's A Comin'", Sandra's Can to Caint, is a Sashiko quilt inspired by the sunrise and sunset. Wanting to incorporate sashiko in a quilt, but have it tell a story, the quilting helps to emphasize the meaning of the phrase, indicating that another day will come.
