Well it does look straighter than that in person. It's hard to take photos of something so small. Anyway. The center represents the fact that quilters can be young or old or somewhere in between. The squares around the edge of the center represents the different tastes in fabric that each quilter can have. The lighthouses represent the instructors and quilting friends who have guided me on my journey.
The buttons are for the fact that quilters come in all different sizes, shapes and colours (and genders - but I don't know how to tell a boy button from a girl button). Buttons and quilters have one purpose. Buttons keep things closed. Quilters quilt.
Here's the back:

Love it. Glad you decided to participate and share with us. I'd love to make one of my story. Maybe I'll think about that and see what i'd come up with. Lane
