<p>This block was created by one of the members of the <a href="http://my.barackobama.com/page/group/FiberArtistsforObama">Fiber Artists for Obama Group</a>, this one contributed by quilt artist <a href="http://www.gericondesigns.com">Gerrie Congdon</a> of Portland, Oregon. (We promise, we have no geographic biases&#8212;Portlanders are uploading a disproportionate number of projects to the <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/obamacraftproject/">OCP Flickr pool.</a>)
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">On flickr, <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/27363925@N03/">Diana Bracy</a> made a moment on this photo that encapsulates the project&#8217;s depth:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: left;">Each photo seems as though he is thinking each sentiment in the word(s).</p>

<p>(This is a piece of a collaborative quilt. If anyone has a photo of the finished quilt, please send it to us at obamacraftproject [at] gmail [dot] com.)</p>

Normanack</a>, Michigan mom and crafter, was asked by her daughter&#8217;s American history teacher to repair the classroom stuffed animal. Here&#8217;s <a href="http://subversivesuburban.blogspot.com/2008/09/wee-sewing-project.html">her story</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: left;">Sewing the arm back on was the work of a moment. I couldn&#8217;t help adding a little shirt to keep the wee beastie warm.</p>
<p>And I couldn&#8217;t help injecting a wee bit of political commentary. I do hope the teacher takes it in the gentle spirit in which it was given.</p></blockquote>
<p>We that that&#8217;s brilliantly crafty and clever.</p>
