The Studio Door
Terry Grant May 30, 2021 Doors, Openings, Portals,Musings,Revealed Quilts,Terry Grant
This is the door to my studio. When I open that door I step into a space that is mine alone, though I’m always happy to have visitors! It is only a short walk, across the front yard and over a little bridge, from my house, but it is a

La Puerta
Terry Grant April 7, 2021 Doors, Openings, Portals,Musings,Terry Grant
I LOVE this theme of “Doors, Openings and Portals! When it was announced I smiled hugely–not because I knew immediately what I was going to do with it, but because it has so many possibilities and after a year of quarantine, don’t we all want to walk through that door

Things fall apart
Terry Grant March 29, 2021 Musings,Revealed Quilts,Shame,Terry Grant
Shame is such a destructive thing, especially for young people and children, who may carry childhood shame into adulthood where it affects their lives, undermining their sense of self and their ability to succeed in relationships, in their work, in their self worth. This was a painful theme for me

Janis Joplin once said . . .
Terry Grant January 29, 2021 Compromise,Musings,Revealed Quilts,Terry Grant
“Don’t compromise yourself. You are all you’ve got.” When I read that our new prompt was to be “compromise” I, frankly, did not know where to begin. Compromise is hard to visualize as an image. It has different meanings and the word, itself, makes me a little uncomfortable. It is

A Creative Compromise
Terry Grant December 24, 2020 Compromise,Musings,Terry Grant
The photo above shows a part of the Cloth in Common exhibit at the Taiwan Quilt Exhibition earlier this year. Don’t our quilts look great? I think they do, in part because of a creative compromise that our group came to. What?—you thought we never disagreed about anything? Well, in

Refuge
Terry Grant November 27, 2020 Isolation,Musings,Revealed Quilts,Terry Grant
The word “isolation,” at this moment in time, can only mean quarantine from the Covid virus, to me. For nine months my husband and I have stayed at home, being as careful as possible to avoid getting this virus. It hasn’t always been easy, but we remind ourselves, almost daily,

Radio waves
Terry Grant September 29, 2020 Media,Musings,Revealed Quilts,Terry Grant
Terry Grant When I was a child the radio was usually on in our house. My mother listened to the local station, KSEI, through the day as she went about her tasks. I learned the names of all the announcers, as we called them, and recognized their voices. They were

Defining media
Terry Grant September 1, 2020 Media,Musings,Terry Grant
I’m still trying to decide how I want to define the word “media” before I can even begin to start on my media response piece–I guess I need to get on that! My first mental response was media=TV, newspaper, magazines and other such stuff. The dictionary has a lot of

The Wetlands
Terry Grant July 29, 2020 Gardens, Parks, Greenspaces,Musings,Revealed Quilts,Terry Grant
Terry Grant My turn to choose the prompt. I had several ideas, but kept coming back to things that make my community so special to me. It is a suburb of a large city and it all feels like my home–the suburbs, the countryside and the city itself and when

New Prompt: Gardens, Parks and Green Spaces
Terry Grant June 1, 2020 Gardens, Parks, Greenspaces,Musings,Prompts,Terry Grant
While a community is made up of individuals, a community is usually also a physical space, inhabited by those individuals. This space can shape the character of a community in positive and negative ways and contributes greatly to the sense of safety, comfort, health and well-being of the community members.

The Amazing, Endless Web
Terry Grant May 30, 2020 Cooperation & Sharing,Musings,Revealed Quilts,Terry Grant
I have not really left my home for nearly 3 months of this Corona virus quarantine, yet each day I connect with friends, I collaborate on projects, I check on the well-being of those I love and miss and I keep up with what is happening around the world. My

Consider the Quilting Bee…
Terry Grant May 12, 2020 Cooperation & Sharing,Musings,Terry Grant
Didn’t we all learn about Cooperation and Sharing in Kindergarten? They were the fundamental principles for being civilized little humans in a group situation! It wasn’t until years later that I understood that those values were not just a good way to be and to get along in life, but
