On December 21, I was invited by our local Member of Parliament to bring my apology quilt to his office so that he could see it.
My husband, Larry Tayler came along to take pictures,
Here's what Mr Ellis had to say on his Facebook Page ...
"Today, I was honoured to meet with Bill Stearman to see his amazing piece of art. Bill hand-made this quilt showcasing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau apology to the LGBTQ community. I was so moved to see the quilt and to hear the impact that this speech made on our community, country and around the globe. Thank you Bill, I am so glad I got to see this, it has truly left me speechless."
When my quilt is home from QuiltCon, and when we are home from Australia in early April, I want to show this quilt to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in Ottawa.
I saw your quilt in Nashville. I have been making quilts for years and your quilt brought tears to my eyes. I have never been so moved by a quilt until I saw yours. It's truly amazing .
