If It Was Only This Easy – a post-Election Day quilt
Tags: Activism · Sustainability
What happens when policy changes meet a sewing machine? My post-Election Day quilt If It Was Only This Easy joins my Election Day 2024 quilt series. I stitched notebook-paper lines, greyed out "climate change" to echo climate change erased from federal websites, and used crab fabric to recall red king crab and snow crab impacts and the fight for access to climate data.
Rolly's Take
For the soul who threads together creativity and activism, seeking solace in fabric as the world shifts beneath their feet. Here, the act of quilting transcends craft; it becomes a powerful statement, weaving personal frustration with collective urgency in the face of erasure. A quiet call to arms for those who believe that every stitch can spark change.
