Description
Participants of the We the People Community Quilt project were asked to answer a number of questions regarding their quilt square.
1. What does your square represent? It represents Buffalo sky. Snowy but the sun shines through. The snow is hard like the ribbon but the sun is soft & that's how Buffalo is to me. It is to show how community is sunshine when life (snow) is hard.
2. Why did you choose these symbols? The weather. My first winter in Buffalo - a horrible time. But friends, family & just laughter (happy conversations, game times) made it better.
3. What do you hope viewers notice or feel? Hopeful. Sun >> snow.
