Description |
The inspiration for this quilt came from a TV commercial I saw during my usual exercise program. This obsession to be thin is unbalanced and unhealthy, and people are hurting because of it. I felt led to express the need to change our focus towards a healthier image, and a realization we are loved by God for our hearts, not our bodies.
