The theme for 2020 was inspired by a quote from Rachel Carson in Silent Spring.
“Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts…There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature – the assurance that dawn comes after night and spring after winter.”
Rachel Carson
Use this inspirational quote to create a small quilt to celebrate the beauty of the natural world around us. A meaningful photograph, a favorite landscape, a poem, music or a trip to a National Park or Botanical garden could motivate you. Your theme could include beaches, oceans, sunrises, sunsets or mountains. You could choose to make a modern or traditional block using fabrics showing or suggesting flora or fauna. Your quilt might inspire the protection of our beautiful planet. The possibilities are endless as is the beauty of our Earth.
