Undergraduate / Quilting: Common application short essay on an extracurricular [2]
From prior experience, I have found that quilting is often thought of as a hobby for the elderly and housewives. Contrary to this, I feel that quilting is a forgotten art, taking immense skill and knowledge of geometry.
When my quilting career emerged at the age of sixteen, I began creating child and infant quilts and gave them as gifts. When these quilts were received, - sounds a bit choppy
Maybe something like "My quilting career began when I was sixteen, I created child and infant quilts and gave them as gifts. I was astonished at the joy they brought to people."
I find it simply beautiful how a handmade blanket can flush the darkness out of someone's day and replace it with love, caring, and understanding.
It seems good, but if you can manage to add to it a bit more, i would think it would help.
