Sometimes we must interfere. . . There is so much injustice and suffering crying out for our attention . . . writers and poets, prisoners in so many lands governed by the left and by the right."

Free form large scale quilt art--someday when I have the money--and space--need to invest in a quilting machine.
Once, when I was 10 or so, my mother and I went to see a workshop in Moulmein where a woman was sewing lace on a machine like this in satin stitch and working so fast--cutting out the holes at the same time.
There are incredibly skilled people in Burma and other countries, unfortunately, the regimes are oppressive and now it's all a wasteland.
I like this woman's video.

I don't like videos of ugly people with squeaky voices, ugly hands and dirty fingernails.

I could make a quilted Buddha--of course, here everyone buys new cloth for quilts,even stores selling textiles just for quilts.
