bigjslVarious makers AIDS Memorial Quilt Block 70 early 1990s, South Australia mixed-media textiles SAMESH (South Australian Mobilisation + Empowerment for Sexual Health) and Thorne Harbour Health The panels of Quilt 70 were assembled in 1993 and memorialise Andrew Roffe, Graham Ashe, John, Patrick, Peter Brosch, Phillip Wait, Piers Stewart and Sharna. Although research into those remembered and the quilt creators continues, the visual and textual content on each panel provides glimpses into the personality of each person. In the panel for 'Uncle John', a heartfelt poem remembers *You are a part of us, as you always have been, as you always will be', while John's niece Lisa wrote a touching message that 'No one will ever take your place' '. A silhouette of a sleeping cat sits centrally on the panel for Peter Brosch, who served on the Queensland AIDS Council board from 1990 to 1992. Phillip Wait was involved with the Adelaide House of the Order of Perpetual Indulgence, a charitable and activist organisation, and Graham Ashe's panel was carefully worked by Mathias Boessen. A panel heavily decorated with animals and cartoon characters celebrates the life of Piers Stewart, one of the youngest people to live with HIV in South Australia. The panel was lovingly made by his mother, herself living with HIV. The small handprint on the lower part of the panel is that of his brother, and a label on the quilt reads 'handmade for an exceptional little boy'. <a href="https://aus.social/tags/radicaltextiles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#radicaltextiles</a>
