PROJECT
According to stitcher Andrea, to say this is one of her most prized quilts
is an understatement. The journey of creating the quilt was one of change and healing, representing 7 tough years of struggle. All of the blocks
are hand-embroidered, and represent moments from her childhood and
dreams for the future. According to Andrea, there was no pattern for this
quilt. “It, much like life, happened organically.”
What a beautiful testament to living life and overcoming
obstacles with creativity!
