Loss

This quilt was designed to represent an encounter I experienced while working with Child, Youth, and Family Services (CYFS) that involved the removal of a child. The left side of the quilt symbolizes this baby’s life when she was living with her family. This was a happy time where she was with the people with whom she was most familiar. The right side of the quilt symbolizes loss. I chose dark colors for this side because this represents sadness and fear, in some cultures.
