I totally feel that, m'dude

I have a rainbow quilt that I sewed the month after I realized I was gay. It was actually a project I thought up the year before, for totally ungay and pragmatic reasons (I didn't have enough of any one color scheme left to make a whole blanket, but if I used all the colors I could make it work). Then after I realized I was gay, I remembered that idea and actually got around to sewing it. In hindsight it all seems rather cringey, but y'know, I was 19, it was summer, and I was bored.

Honestly, I think the quilt is still quite pretty. But I feel kinda lukewarm and iffy about it these days. Like maybe that isn't symbolism that I want displayed in my house, now. But I don't want to sell it or give it away either, cause I don't want the TQs getting their grubby hands on it.
