Thanks for sharing your process Lesley; I always learn many things from you. The Civil War series is spectacular! I hope I can see them, or even one of them, in person some time.
Lesley, I bought your book when it first came out and have yet to make any quilts. I love your focus on historical figures and events. I plan to create some with my family pics but am thinking about widening my focus. Thanks for sharing your process and inspiration today.
What week to read about an artist using history to examine deeper ideas. How do women not in power navigate difficult times., is a theme that strikes me as important. (On a side note. We create because we don’t know what we’re doing but choose to let the process be the teacher!)
Your work is absolutely breathtaking, Lesley. And I so enjoyed reading about your process. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you again, Judith.

I'm a teacher at heart! Thanks for the comment, Jan.

So much to do, so little time. We have so may stories to tell.

That is a good theme. One that I'm interested in as well, being a Women's Studies major. And, great side note. It's all about the process.
