Each icon in the background has a special meaning to me. The square quilt pattern behind her represents her quilt making hobby. The Queen Anne’s Lace flowers on the sides remind me of how she taught me things like when she told me what they were called. The tomatoes on the top are life, like the tomatoes she and gramps used to grow in their garden. The bunny on the top left represents my late grandpa because of a story he used to tell. The armadillo in the top right is her kids, grandkids, and great grandkids, who would run around her yard tearing it up like armadillos do. The puzzle piece in the bottom right symbolizes her desire for community because she always leaves out puzzles for the people that visit to work on while they talk
I had so much fun adding all the meaning!Mar 15, 2024
