Famous quotes containing the words star and/or quilts:
“What is this flesh I purchased with my pains,
This fallen star my milk sustains,
This love that makes my hearts blood stop
Or strikes a sudden chill into my bones
And bids my hair stand up?”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“In the quilts I had found good objectshospitable, warm, with soft edges yet resistant, with boundaries yet suggesting a continuous safe expanse, a field that could be bundled, a bundle that could be unfurled, portable equipment, light, washable, long-lasting, colorful, versatile, functional and ornamental, private and universal, mine and thine.”
—Radka Donnell-Vogt, U.S. quiltmaker. As quoted in Lives and Works, by Lynn F. Miller and Sally S. Swenson (1981)
