I made The Calm Amidst the Chaos in the first months after leaving the noise of Chicagoland for the hush of Indiana cornfields. Once home, wrapped in silence, learning how to breathe again, my hands began stitching their own language. Spirals bloomed. Color surged. Order unraveled into freedom.
A third-eye bead rests at the brow, watching inward and outward at once. And at the crown, facing the open sky, I embedded a tiny Bleeding Heart of Jesus pendant—an anchor of compassion, devotion, and fierce protection.
This hat is a talisman of survival and stillness. A reminder that even in the storm, there is a quiet center. A place where the soul can sit, breathe, and simply be.
