I’m so proud to have contributed to this quilt. Threads Speak Quilt received a First Place ribbon at Quilt Con!

Congrats to everyone who shared in this quilt!

Threads Speak is a collective protest quilt created by makers who stitched haiku onto low volume fabrics to give voice to grief, anger, hope, and resistance. It was created in response to the erosion of democracy, rising authoritarian policies, and cruelty toward vulnerable communities. Every block is a reminder that silence is a choice, and together we can refuse to look away.
