Connecting Squares Quilt

on December 23, 2012

While I was sewing the binding around this quilt I started thinking about all the squares within squares on this quilt and how they all connected to make something beautiful. So here’s my take on Connecting Squares. Have a look at the photos and maybe you’ll come up with your own meaning of Connecting Squares. Thanks for stopping by and have a very Merry Christmas.

Connecting Squares

We spend a lifetime connecting dots and squares. Squares that connect that help shape who we are and who we become. Squares filled with people that we meet. Squares filled with friends that lead us to more friends and squares that connect us to our families.

Squares shape our future and for some those squares connect early in the journey. For others it takes many squares to show us our future, and the beauty of this is that we end up with many squares filled with memories and hopes for the future. And finally all those square connect to make this beautiful quilt.
