I heard Lisa give an artist’s talk on quilting…[where] she spoke of her grandmother, who taught her to sew. I missed my own grandmothers…both had been quilters, and I regretted not taking the time to sit by their sides and learn to sew.
“I want to learn to quilt,” I told Lisa. I signed up because I had quit my job and [had just] moved to Portland…[without] a clue what I was going to do next. But I could make a quilt, Lisa assured me, even though I had never sewn anything before and had
“sewing machine anxiety.”
...
For eight weeks…under [Lisa’s] calm, gentle guidance the fabric I chose magically became my own creation. During our first class, she gave me a seam ripper. “You will need this,” she said solemnly. “Everyone makes mistakes, and the first time you use it
we will clap and cheer.”
Making a quilt is the perfect metaphor for reinventing myself. [In choosing the colors and styles] the possibilities are endless…I get to listen to my heart and my inner artist,
and find out what she likes. Mistakes could and would be made.
But in the end, something tangible and tactile and lovely emerges…How grateful I am to Lisa for teaching me that.
