Quilted Cottage

After having been asked how many quilts I’ve made, who I’m making this one for,

Or that one for, or why, and how many quilts do I think I need…………

I came to the following conclusion:

I am a creator, an artist, just as much as a painter is………………

Does anyone ask a painter who he is painting for or why he is painting yet another landscape? How many pictures/portraits has he painted? How many canvases or paintings does he need? NO

Does a painter stop wanting to paint because he has reached some number that symbolizes the end of his need to paint? “Okay, that’s #100, I’m done now…..”

I create because I am driven to create. My medium just happens to be fabric and thread, instead of oil or acrylics on canvas……… but I create for the same reason……to express myself, to share myself, to experiment………………

Even if the quilt doesn’t have a purpose , a recipient, a reason.

Quilting is my voice.

I Quilt, therefore I am!
