Quilt by Helen Sherrod-circa 1950s

By Harriet Freiberger

Needles, thread, and human hands, but there is more -something that defines a need to understand a lifetime that we come to know as who and what we are.

Thrown headfirst into the whirlwind of our senses, we reach for soothing quiet and calm, a pattern that will satisfy bold cravings as our bodies grow into a thriving wholeness, definitive in the passage of becoming.

We reach for touch and feel -and find - a teasing taste -amazing possibility of becoming.

Then, as growth empowers more connections, explore to see a pattern form - complexity emerging -stitches bound within a border defining there a hoped-for clarifying moment’s stillness: and it is done.
