New Moon Quilt: Months Passing Without Notice

Months Passing Without Notice by Joyce
The months in the book just broke my heart. I thought it was so powerful to just have them listed as time passed. These are like a 'flip calendar.' If you look closely, hopefully you will see the trees are designed to symbolize hands reaching toward each other, but just not able to connect.

October


November

December
In case you are wondering about the green, I had 'snowy' fabric picked out, but looked at pictures of a Christmas celebration and parade in Forks. It was green (just like in the books), so I had to go with that. By December, the leaves should have been mostly gone, anyway.

January
In January, Bella 'wakes up'. There is hope, although she is still heartbroken. The 'ground' material actually has a little bit of sparkle in it.
