This is one of those quilts that went unnamed the whole time I was working on it (I just referred to it as the create banner.) Sometimes it just takes awhile for the perfect name to make itself known -

HESSEL’S MANDATE
Completed: August 2025
Design: Improv Letters
Quilting: Sparkler Pantograph
Size: 11.5” x 64.5”

Here's a short write up about Hessel's incredible life if you are unfamiliar with him:

Improv pieced letters that read "To Create is To Resist". The letters are sewn from a series of tone-on-tone rainbow fabrics, with the first and last letter being red and the other letters mirroring each other, front to middle to back, in this order: pink, orange, yellow, green, teal, blue, purple. The center word "Is" is pieced from tone-on-tone black fabric and the background fabric for the entire 5 foot plus banner is white.

I am starting to get excited for Finish-or-Frog-Along running in September / October (FKA #FallFinishAlong, renamed to be more hemisphere-inclusive). I plan to host as for the last two years and I hope the Fediverse is engaged as ever! Open to crafters and makers of all kinds - anyone with works in progress (WIPs) to finish or mindfully decide to kill. Stay tuned for more! #FinishOrFrogAlong #knitting #spinning #crochet #weaving #quilting#CrossStitch#FiberArts @knitting @fiberarts
