Books & Quilts



 

Books and quilts, they go so well together. So there are some stories hidden in this small quilt here which covers a wicker chest, one topic here is - for example -  about where the fabric pieces come from : several old Levi's jeans (worn by different persons, including myself), pieces from a dress I bought at a wonderful second-hand-shop in Madison/Wisconsin several years ago and fabrics I received as a gift.  Plus, this quilt started as a totally different project before it turned into the object which can be seen in this picture. Plus, I always sew my quilts by hand, but this time I did all the sewing with a machine and only did the quilting by hand, and the reason why is a different story again.

Someone said, the universe is not made of atoms, but of tiny stories, I find that is very true.
