Artist Statement/ Description/ Method
Far too often, our days are busy and cluttered, filled with duties and interests that leave us no time to really enjoy life. This quilt is an attempt to depict the gradual change from chaos to calm. Bold colours and improv piecing at the lower levels reveal the fractured rhapsody of our lives; as we clear the clutter, everything lightens up until life becomes calmer and more meaningful, flowing with ease.
"A poor life this, if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare."
