The Quilt of Life
Michael, USAThis glass bead would show a quilt pattern inside, with different designs on the fabrics. Some would be solid, and some would have stripes, dots, and other designs, as seen here. The quilt, to me, is a perfect metaphor for life. Not one piece, but rather, pieces and bits of memories, sewn together, to create something unique, and beautiful. The Quilt of Life is a bead to remind us to cherish each memory, as they make up part of the quilt, that is our life.
El Diseñador
My name is Michael Nylander, and I have a disability known as Strumpell Lorrain Syndrome, which makes it difficult for me to walk, and has me requiring the use of a walker. Still though, I do not let this stand in my way. I am the type of person that is always making others happy, and always reaching for my dreams, no matter what. I feel it is always important to reach for ones dreams, and to not let anything hold us back. Life is an adventure. And that adventure can be wonderful, if we always remember to reach for our dreams.
