QUILTS ABOUT GUN VIOLENCE

Quilters have alot to say about GUN VIOLENCE!

They might even protest through their quilting stitches. 

Like sew many did at QuiltCon 2024

Raleigh, NC

The very first quilt for everyone to see 

as they entered the quilt show was this 

BEST IN SHOW QUILT

Front of the quilt  (classroom weapons)

Back of the quilt (because of…)

Quilts are not normally full of holes.

We do NOT live in a normal world anymore. 

The holes in this quilt are not from mice!

Looks like a bunch of tiny scraps...

But the Maker says is represents lives taken in Colorado 

by firearms… read her statement.

These two quilts stopped me ‘dead in my tracks’.

Read the Maker’s statements. 

First Makers Statement

Bang You’re Dead

Second Maker’s Statement

Aftermath

my message…my opinion

GUNS.KILL.PEOPLE

NO ONE today should own  AR15s

They were made for soldiers to

KILL PEOPLE!

I am NOT against 2nd amendment rights

WE OWN GUNS!

There has to be stronger Gun Laws,

You can scream mental health all you want.

Wonder what the victims of gun violence screamed

(Before the bullet, from the gun, held by a murdered 

who pulled,the trigger on the gun)

killed them ?

Yeah, answer me that!
