As you may know, I am a wildlife photographer and I like to make art quilts about environmental topics, and endangered species. I am just now finishing up 2 bear quilts that will be in exhibits later this year. I like to make textile art that invites people to stop and think about these issues.
Today I am going to the Colorado State Capital to have brunch with the Speaker of the House, and then I am attending a meeting for CLAW. (Colorado Legislative Animal Welfare) I am also bringing a wolf quilt and a bear quilt to share with these folks who work to save and protect Colorado wildlife, and domestic animals. (Farm animals, and pets)
When the world is crazy, I try to spend time with people who endeavor to make our communities, our world, a better place. It helps me to get through the day, the week, the year….
One of my friends in this group is a chaplain who supports veterinarians who have to make difficult decisions for suffering animals. I really appreciate anyone who can give support, to anyone struggling with grief and loss. We all have something precious to give.
There are no magic solutions, but we can come together to make peace, justice, and positive change. I hope you too can use your creativity and wisdom to make a difference in your world.
Thursday I am flying to Ontario, California, for the Road to California how. I’ll be walking the show on Friday. Perhaps I’ll see you there, and we can give each other a supportive hug.
Sharing your passion for fabric…
