Making Memorial Quilts from the Clothing of the Beloved

Georgia Marie Wood (1917-2003), 2004, 78" x 62", fragments of my grandmother's housecoats, Sunday dresses, and golf shirts. Made as a gift for my father.

Passage Quilting™ Workshop

Friday & Saturday, December 10 & 11, 10 AM - 4 PM St. John's Unitarian Church, Cincinnati OH Cost: $150 (scholarships available). To register contact: Lisa Siders.

This hands-on, bereavement workshop provides a grounded container for the experience of grief. Participants will utilize the clothing of the departed and other meaningful materials to create a quilt without a predetermined pattern. This process will be the vehicle for inner work and outward expression as it reveals and orients the patterns, by which we survive, grow and transform. The resulting quilts will reflect our relationships, retain a sense of the body, and carry the consoling essence of the beloved. No sewing experience necessary. Sewing machine required. Facilitator: Sherri Lynn Wood.
