The Birth Quilt



Sara, a PA mama and fiber artist, was recently in town for the Handmade Arcade Craft Fair. (Where our own Birth Circle doulas, Jamie and Courtney, sold their excellent hats, clothing and baby slings too!) Sara made this quilt over the course of 6 years as part of her own healing following the births of children. Note the text in the background, which reads "I am not afraid, I am born to do this." What beautiful work--if only we could hang work like this in our own L&D wards!
