It's beautiful and moving. I've never seen a story quilt before now, but I like the idea.

We do have earthquakes though, and I know the emotions they can generate in people, so understand some of what you must have gone through. Well done on putting those feelings into a quilt.

It's a great example of how our quilting is connected to the real world, not just a form of crafty escapism - though it can be that too.
