Ongoing art project- needs some new participants!

The uterus is a womb with a view - of earth and spirit, sea and sky. It is our common ancestral space from which we emerged in our own uniqueness. The uterus was our first earthbound home and will be the home of others for generations to come. It rests in the space below heart; supporting and nurturing our heritage, contribution, and often our legacy.

The above text is directly from a comment left on the Facebook page for The Uterus Flag Project.

I've been re energized to re-ignite this project from a few students who are researching about feminism and craftivism. 
The Uterus Flag Project is an ongoing art project incorporating the theory of craftivism. This project includes social justice (concerns about women’s health issues), social practice (making meaning through the use of fiber arts), art history (addressing feminism and fiber arts/crafts in the 70’s), and collaboration (participation in a living project).

All  creative ideas are shared, whether intentionally or not.
As I was developing my social justice, feminist fiber, craftivism project so are others around the world.

I'd love to travel to England and do a Sit and Stitch there!
