The Grow Wild quilt pattern 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?
The fabric we selected to kit with Grow Wild is Blaze - a series of 6 prints depicting the passion and colorful expression of West African culture and philosophy, by local Albuquerque artist Binah Waite Williams. The kit is for a throw size: 62"x62"
