Jami Dulaney MD Wellness Podcast Episode 457: The Quilt Story

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. Today's episode is my story of making a quit for my granddaughter , and how it was not in my comfort zone. I learned to quilt from watching my grandmother. Unfortunately, that was 50 plus years ago. She made quilts for her family by hand with fabric from old clothes. She allowed me to quilt with her using black thread so it could be easily seen and removed when I went home at night. I remember the care and hard work that went into making the quilts and how they warm and cozy they felt on a cold night. Quilting is piecing together fabrics from various sources. The fabrics are cut into patterns and sewn together. They are then attached to a batting layer that provides depth and warmth. The third layer is a backing. The quilting process is actually the stitching together of the three layers in various patterns depending on the complexity. You can sew by hand or with a machine or a combination. I did mine with a standard sewing machine. I have no training, just memories and video tutorials. It is the memories that are most important. The gift of time poured into a project to share with someone else. It lasts. It requires mindfulness and dedication to detail. It is art shared and is raw. To me it is a symbol of life weaved piece by piece. Some of it smooth, other parts uneven and challenging. I hope it is a sense of peace and love that is passed from one person to another. For me it was a learning experience of patience, mindfulness and love. If that is not wellness, then I don't know what is. Enjoy my quilt story and smile.
