I...Thank you for this inspirational story and art. I especially like your inclusion of the biology and the photo with your grown son says it all!<br />I am requesting permission to include the image of the quilt with your son in a book that I am writing entitled Peace Fibres: Stitching a Soulful World. In it, I enlist fibre work as metaphor and manifestation for developing harmonious relationship to self, others, and the larger world.<br />Your quilt would be inspirational in a chapter on resilience in which I focus on how people use fibre art in recoving from trauma.<br />May I use the image? I would, of course, cite you as artist and your website.<br />Thank you for considering my request. I look forward to your response.<br />Respectfully,<br />Karen LohnKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17611385831338301774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33232195.post-31711537331423219042009-04-25T12:30:00.000-05:002009-04-25T12:30:00.000-05:00An amazing story and what a quilt.
