We thank Sassy Jacks
our friend SheliaStitchery
McCann for her valued input on the chart. I hope you enjoy stitching our
presentation of Rosa Parks, our fellow needlewoman. And I hope as your needle brings her face to life,
encompassed by the traditional quilt squares representing her love of quilting; I hope you feel a cer-
tain kinship with her… and I hope you allow that to resonate within you while you stitch. I hope you
see the beauty in her face, in her life, and in her desire to contribute to a better world.
