My mother, grandmother, and sister made me a quilt for my high school graduation. It has a piece of writing and artwork from each year of school embroidered on panels, in my handwriting. It tells a story of who I am and how I became the person I am now.

I have always loved being wrapped up in the quilts that my great grandmother made. The fabrics and the stiching fascinate me. I recently started quilting as well, and find joy in continuing a family tradition. Combining functionality, emotion, and art through the quilts makes them well worth the time and effort.
