This Week's Theme:   Quilts II
 

quilt(kwilt)
n.

  • A coverlet or blanket made of two layers of fabric with a layer of cotton, wool, feathers, or down in between, all stitched firmly together, usually in a decorative crisscross design.
  • A thick protective cover similar to or suggestive of a quilt.

Quilts, whether tradional, modern, functional or decorative, are a part of the history and heritage of many families in almost every culture. When you consider this and the creativity, artistry, skill and care with which quilts are created, the above definition hardly seems adequate.

One day i was sitting in the bathtub talking on the phone to my friend Nate. He had gotten hurt skiing and couldn't finish out the season. He explained his whole philosophy of what skiing meant to him and how sad he was. I told him i'd make him a quilt. He travels alot so wasn't able to take the quilt with him.
