The Quilter's Memory The fiery red fabric makes me think of Valentine’s Day, lace handkerchiefs, chocolate candy in gold boxes, sentimental cards, and love. These are the thoughts I wish to evoke within my viewers. To establish the memory of the feeling of love in my audience, I will stitch together the three layers of the quilt with beautifully shaped hearts in perfect diagonal cross-hatching spaced precisely one-half inch apart. *Quoted from my article "Teaching the Tools of the Five Classical Canons of Rhetoric to Composition Students through the Quiltmaking Design Process"--and copyrighted 2006.
