Pati Fried started to make "Cry For Ukraine" the day that the Ukrainian War began.
Like everyone else, Pati wanted to help the Ukrainians but couldn't, so she went and started ripping up fabric like she had done in a previous tree quilt that she made. Many people have asked her if she could teach them the method in which she made the tree quilt, and she tells them that she can teach them how she got there but not necessarily the technique. So for Cry For Ukraine she developed the method to be simpler so that it could be taught.
