Personal Quilt

My Quilt




Future




Outside




Inside




Past



In the beginning I was struggling so much because I was thinking of it too much. Once I startes to just relax it was so much easier for me. I just asked Ms. Cook for some ideas on what I could do to make them look a little more similar and vivid looking. I then started to look at all of them the same and I just started to do all sorts of things, although my quilt squares are a little simple but that's how I feel and the person that I am. The hardest one for me was my future because I was having trouble on knowing what I was going to do. My least favorite quilt would be my inside. It was my hardest and least favorite because I wasn't being creative and I should have taken more time on doing it.

My favorite square actually turned out being my future square because it has everything I wanted and everything that I wanted to do. Like I would like to become a chef and graduate from high school and college. I would like to go to college and go to Hawaii and the beautiful background of the river makes it look so peaceful. In my outside and inside it is a little bit and totally different kind of person although in a way still the same person everyone can see on the outside or who actually knows me. I have pictures ofmy loved ones in my outside and inside because if it wasn't for them I wouldn't have been who I am right nor and they helped me out when I needed someone to talk to.
I think that it was hard for me to express myself visually because it's hard for me to express my self to someone else unless I know them from a long time. I was a little surprised to what some of my friends and family thought of me. They saw things that I would have seen unless they showed me. I am not happy with some of my quilt squares because they look so plain and boring to me like they really don't have any meaning to it. I would do different from some of these quilts would be to take my time on them and think about it a lot more. I would keep my future and also my outsde square beause they look nice and it's how I was really feeling about all of the quilt squares.
