I'm trying to recreate Grace's quilt from the movie. Wish me luck.

I'm being extremely ambitious for someone who has never ever done embroidery, sewing or fabric painting (except for one t-shirt I painted with PHM art recently). My love for this movie is making me stretch my skillset so much haha.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I feel the quilt is such a beautiful detail in the movie, I haven't been able to stop thinking about it ever since I laid my eyes on it. Every time it came up on screen, I wished the scene lasted long enough to see and admire all of its details. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I really like that the quilt holds so much love in its visual design itself, without even needing a backstory about who gave it to him and when. It's a combination of so many hand-painted/embroidered/ printed patches of "happy earth" drawings, many symbols of good luck and protection from across the world, and a Thank You.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I like to think that when he transitioned from a full-time science teacher to a lab scientist on the mission to save Earth, his students made it as a farewell gift. With each student creating their own piece to be added, which was then stitched together. I love the fact that it has a haphazard, non-uniform grid, which must be because all the pieces were kept as they were, no trimming/ cutting off the edges to fit in.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I love it so so much I can't even explain. It feels like if I just had this one blanket, it would shield me against all the coldness of this world. I need it so bad I'm making myself one despite zero skillset to pull it off, but I really wanna try. This blanket is gonna heal me :')

I know so many of us would love to get our hands on an Art book for Project Hail Mary, but they haven't announced anything like that yet, so I built my own collection for now. All the images are taken from social media handles of the artists, and duly tagged. I was so amazed looking at all the creative work that went into this movie, I spent 15+ hours just admiring and collecting it all. Happy Happy Happy.
