A project that started with the idea of making slow fashion from fast fashion and turned that into a quilt made from mostly second-hand fabrics from me, my mom, my grandma and great grandma and also from my work.  

By making clothing yourself, you feel more emotionally attached to it which will make it less likely you throw it away. By using old clothes or fabrics that have a memory, the memory will continue, even from generation to generation which will give your old fabrics new meaning and the memory will keep existing. By making it yourself, stitch by stitch, it takes a lot of time. But this repeating aspect is very relaxing and clears your mind, which is something that is very needed in this stressful society.
