It’s symbolic of the many losses we experienced in isolation. Without our family and friends by our side, it was hard to make sense of these loses. For my dad with dementia, none of it made any sense at all. Valuable connections, memories and physical functions fell away. For those with family in care, this separation hastened the decline of our loved ones. This quilt evolved as Dad’s memories faded. I stitched the details of his life into this quilt during visits with him. It hung in his room to remind him of his story and his place in this world and remind him that he is loved. As Tracey Chalmers, End of Life Doula, said….. at the end of life people want to know “if they’ve loved enough and if they are loved”. Hopefully this quilt helped Dad remember he achieved both. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62eb23e514c84e2fa893f085/1693533641491-C15C5TY46W51RYY1NDM3/image-asset.jpeg Work - A's custom quilt 180 x 150cm This quilt ws made out of A’s childhood clothing.

It speaks of how our intergenerational trauma effects our current orientation in the world. When we are primed to endure betrayal (abuse/neglect) by our primary care givers we can develop a level of blindness to the ones we love, the ones we are loyal to. In life this can set us up to choose partners or become enmeshed in situations where we can become the victim in a repetitive victim-perpetrator role.... rendering us unable to step away, for blind love. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62eb23e514c84e2fa893f085/1713950937798-D242PB5ZY283NCOQ8C7A/image-asset.gif Work https://melindakeilyquilts.com/about-melinda-keily daily 0.75 2025-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62eb23e514c84e2fa893f085/5282ddbc-416d-4d17-adc6-c279b4a8f054/mel+n+arty.JPG About - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://melindakeilyquilts.com/contact daily 0.75 2022-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62eb23e514c84e2fa893f085/3bc79a42-a797-4f95-83af-ee2c4627a7de/49CD1EF3-B512-4F57-9B78-518C445FC9EE.jpg contact - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://melindakeilyquilts.com/shop daily 0.75 2025-08-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62eb23e514c84e2fa893f085/bbdb4f63-8bcd-46a0-91af-652c7c09a53f/teatowel.jpg Shop - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://melindakeilyquilts.com/store daily 0.75 2025-06-27
