X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>These two quilts\,&nbsp\;In The Arms of Th
 e Everglades&nbsp\;and&nbsp\;If The Sacred Is A River Within Us\, Let It F
 low Like This Forever\,&nbsp\;were crafted by the Miami community over the
  course of six sewing circle sessions led by local sustainable fiber artis
 t\, Pangea Kali Virga\, and hosted at the Miami Beach Regional YouMake spa
 ce. The sewing circles taking place from August through December of 2024 w
 elcomed dozens of participants with ages ranging from 2 to 80 who worked o
 n dyeing the fabrics\, cutting the patterns and motifs\, pinning the eleme
 nts together\, and sewing the layers together to create two finished quilt
 ed landscapes. The landscapes depict and are inspired by various regional 
 ecosystems in the Everglades as well as native plants and animals includin
 g the Anhinga bird\, Julia butterfly\, and Mangrove trees. The quilt borde
 rs take direct inspiration from various patchwork designs from the Miccosu
 kkee. The materials for the two quilts were upcycled and repurposed from o
 ld military jackets\, bed linens\, clothing\, net fruit packaging\, vintag
 e bridal lace\, and more. All scraps leftover from the quilt making proces
 s will be further repurposed in new art works.</p>\nhttps://mdpls.libnet.i
