Writing & Quilting

8 December 2009

Writing is like quilting. Quilters save random remnants and swatches of fabric,
then sew them together into beautiful patchwork quilts that last for many
years. Likewise, writers save random thoughts and memories, then weave them
together into poetry or prose that lasts forever. Both writers and quilters
preserve the past, by weaving it together with the present and future.
