I Like Thursday # 88 ~ Why I Quilt

 

Photo of My Batik Layer Cake Quilt                   

The #IGQuiltFest2021 prompt for the day is

"Why do you quilt?"

This is something I could write volumes about, 

but choosing a photo to represent what I have to say is more difficult.

My reasons are 

1) I love to create.

"cre-ate  verb ... to bring (something) into existence"

2) Life is Beautiful ~ One Stitch at a Time

3)  I love fabric and color. 

4) I love to make the world a warmer place, one quilt at a time. 

5) I quilt because I am happy.

Today I also want to share and celebrate the creativity of this lovely young woman.

Jess is my son, Matt's, other half. 

Jess taught herself to knit this winter

and loves to knit as much as I love to quilt.

Jess is already creating her own knit designs.

Jess has already opened her own small business,

Knits by Jess Faith on Etsy

Jess is a wonder woman knitter. 

When I asked Jess for a certain size headband so I could wear it over my ears to keep my them warm and my hair back when I am outside in the cold, she made me this lovely headband.

I love it!
