embellishments; hand and machine pieced, hand and machine embroidered,<br />
hand quilted. 26" x 51"<br />
I am fascinated by the passing of time, and how one<br />
can exist in the present tense, and yet, also in the<br />
past through memories and in the future, through<br />
aspirations. This quilt was designed to incorporate<br />
my most important memories to date. Yesterday's<br />
memories have determined both what we are today,<br />
and shape what we will become tomorrow. Included<br />
in this patchwork collage of my memories, are images<br />
relating to my maternal grandmother, and the wedding<br />
rings of both my mother and grandmother.
