I really, really, really love this quilt. So much is said in the quilt without even reading the message. I love this quilt!!

I hope everyone who sees this quilt realizes that it is based on the WWII "We Can Do It" poster now identified as Rosie the Riveter, when the men went off to war and women kept the country running. Wikepedia has a good article on Rosie the Riveter.

For years, I kept a postcard size of the “We Can Do It” poster in my office. It inspired me then, as now!

This piece is stunning and so inspirational. I saw it first in the AQS magazine, and kept peering at it deeper and deeper to see more details, as well as its words of wisdom about strong girls! As a social worker, I know how much we need “strong girls!” I love that you included so many detail shots of the piecing, thread work and quilting!! I sent a picture of the quilt (with attribution) to my goddaughter and her mom. She’s growing up into a “strong girl,” and even resembles the girl in the artist’s quilt! Thank you for sharing it and kudos to Lynn Czaban!!! Marci
