The Grow Wild quilt is inspired by the concept of lovingkindness and, when cultivated, its ability to transform barren land into a field of wildflowers. In Buddhism, metta meditation is the practice through which this compassion is cultivated toward both ourselves and others by concentrating on kind phrases and goodwill. In our often fractured and antagonistic world, sowing seeds of metta means more connection, beauty & love within and all around us - who wouldn’t benefit from that?

See the quilted tote bag tutorial on the blog to turn a Grow Wild block into the most fabulous tote.
