The Pain of Love

The Pain of Love

This quilt is about the dual nature of love. Two huge thorns oppose each other, and on them a jealous man tries to kill his rival. In the top right hand corner a woman is in despair, because she has no food for her children, and her love for them causes her pain. On the right hand side a woman is having to leave her child to go to work, causing them both sadness.
