Pieces of Life Stitched Together
I believe that quilting is a fitting representation for the human experience. Each piece, as with each experience, is fit together to form a whole. The stitches are carefully measured, each sewn while experiencing life events around the particular piece it represents. When a part of the quilt is torn, such as when a loved one dies, or we're torn apart by illness or neglect, that piece of our heart and life is patched up and sewn into the new fabric that makes up our existence. I've had this theory about quilting and life since I was in my teens, though I never formally learned how to quilt.
