For context: The National Science Foundation founds a lot of basic research in the US. This new policy asking program officers to "review" grants based on a list of keywords containing words lie "biased" or "female" does not "just" attack DEI but all serious science. In the end it hurts everyone.

Today I was reminded of this quilt I made a while ago for an exhibition of our guild #dcmqg about "patriotism". It reads "Ich bin froh, nicht stolz, Deutsche zu sein" (I am glad, not proud, to be German). Things I didn't do anything for but that benefit me are a privilege not a source of pride.

I love the texture of these #placemats when they get hit by the low winter sun! This project started in a "scrap play" workshop with Sherri Lynn Wood last January. We sewed "scrap jelly rolls", which I then sandwiched between larger, sandy-colored scraps to let the colors pop. #quiltsky #scrapplay

I want to give this a try. Hopefully we can create the same kind of supportive & inspiring community that we have on IG but without supporting spineless billionaires. Here's a collection of my work to kick things off! #quilt #modernquilting First, my most recent quilt finish: "The space between us"
Quilt made from shirt sleeves and other repurposed clothing fabric in an improvisational style. Two opposing corners have curvy wedges in black, blue, red and orange tones, separated by a light pink space.
