Love Patchwork & Quilting 88의 목차

It’s hard to strike the right tone here when there is so much uncertainty in the world, and I have no idea what may have shifted and changed by the time this goes to print, let alone reaches your hands. I hope you and your loved ones are safe and well, and I hope that you are starting to get back some normality in your day to day lives. Goodness knows we are all ready for some stability!

A two-word PSA in the form of well-intentioned-yet-ridiculous inspirational posters, cheap t-shirts and school murals the world over. A personal favourite: “Be YOUnique!” (Insert eye roll here). And yet, behind this hackneyed mantra lies truth – an important life lesson that, believe it or not, actually carries over into the colourful world of quilting. Just like one’s personal clothing preferences or interior decorating aesthetic, quilters have their own personal style when it comes to the projects they create. There’s an abundance of styles within the quilting world: traditional, modern, minimalist, maximalist, improvisational, abstract… the list goes on and on. So how does one decide what suits them best? The truth? Are you sitting down…
