Quilting as therapy

Have you found how comforting making a quilt can be when things are tough in your life? It may not work the same way for people with no interest in sewing, but I found quilting challenging enough to keep my mind occupied, and at the same time designing and handling the fabrics is soothing.
I wonder how many quilts have a hidden story ? What were those other events in the quilter's life that affected the quilt making ?
This is a picture of my first quilt, made as a memory quilt and very satisfying as a project.
What's the story behind some of your quilts?

Until next time
