You may have noticed from yesterday’s post that there was writing, in fact signatures, in the seams of one of the pictures.  You would be right!  Most of the lead team had a chance to sign the seams where there was blank space.  Two did not as they weren’t ever close to it at the time that the jacket was available.  I wish we would have thought of this earlier and had many of the stitchers sign too – but we can’t think of everything ahead!  We most likely wouldn’t have had space as there was other writing to be done.  Jill earlier said in a post that there was a hex put on it to keep those who might consider dismantling it from that unfortunate act.  But in seriousness, there is a story written in the seams.  Most of the reason for the writings is to make sure that history doesn’t misinterpret the time that this piece was made.  When we get around to the huge task of taking the 500 construction pictures and writing that part of the story – I’ll share that ’story’ with you.

But for now you can enjoy seeing Mark put his John Hancock in the piece.
