Personal Quilt

MY QUILT

OUTSIDE


INSIDE


PAST

FUTURE

UPLOAD ALL 5 images LARGE and CENTER. Upload the full quilt LAST and it will be placed at the top of the stack. It doesn't matter what order the others are in.


You are to write a reflection on the process and outcome of this project. It should be well written and should be thorough in content.
The following are some ideas and questions to touch on or think about as you write your reflection. You do not have to answer every question, but let them be a diving board to explore the last two months and the work you have put in.
Discuss where your ideas came from and how they changed. Are you happy with your decisions? Are there some things you are not content with? What are those and why? Which square is your favorite? which is the least favorite? Why? Where did you struggle the most? What did you do to overcome the struggle or what finally helped you push forward?
Compare and contrast your squares; past and future, what is similiar what is different? Inside and Outside; is there a difference in what you were trying to express here? Does it feel like 2 different people or the same? Were you surprised when you heard what others thought of you?
Discuss the symbolism you used throughout your work. What symbols were the strongest for you? How did you use symbols to express yourself? Are they clear or obscure?
Were you honest with your content and your expression in each square? Was it hard or easy to express yourself visually? Why? If you would like to explain what you were trying to express in one or more of your squares you may, although, you do not have to.
Visually what do you like about your quilts? What do you think is/are the strongest part(s) of your quilt?
What new tools did you use? What tools did you get better at? What was your favorite trick or tool to use through out your squares?
Overall describe your experience. What would you do different next time? What would you keep the same?
