Stepping Stones

© 2002. Leaf prints on hand appliquéd circles, hand knit embellishments, beads, hand quilted. 16.5 x 45 inches.

The original title I had in mind when I started this piece was “Past, Present, Future”. I was thinking about the patterns in time in both nature and our lives. As I worked on the piece it started to visually resemble stepping stones on a garden path. I recognized that by being making conscious decisions about how we deal with the patterns in our life we can use them as stepping stones to growth.
