I had to go and hang up the Storyline quilts….and with a cursory glance to get them in order, I was totally amazed…and this is without their personal one on one time with me. Wow. (I know it sounds odd that I, the girl who made them, is a bit late to the game of understanding them…the message goes beyond the workmanship, the colors and the designs.)
Here are a few highlights.
The first quilt is what I created to depict, "dropping the ego" and how you would rise when this happened. The second quilt was about meditation and it just so happened that the background has a butterfly, a sign of transformation.
This third one is titled, "Soul Lost" and standing back, it appears to be a large hand taking or pulling the soul ( moon slice, out of the quagmire…..This I have never seen in the quilt before, it was just a mish mash mess and the halfmoon cresent of gold.
The pink one shows one ball untangled from the mess and is floating free…and ironically or not, a person appears on a floating ball in the second. (The second one, I just pulled from going to Marquette this morning.)
What blows my mind is that these were all made 'randomly' and separately, a confused lady playing in fabric…quilting to find peace away from her upside down world and mental mind.
Unbelievable, and it is me who chose the fabric, played with color and design…to see the connection and progression these have.
And the little quilt shows the lady arising out the energy….like the whole background is the content of the ball of energy she rode out on.
And to see these two side by each, you can see the size difference as well as her movement and overall energy.
It will be an amazing process to get these in a book, to find a blog post, or perhaps write from scratch. There are over twenty at least that will be included.
There are more, but these seemed to be the main line….This collection will be on display at the Strawberry Festival Quilt show in July….the Saturday after the 4th.
I can't wait to begin to work with this whole line and see my journey in fabric.
