Standing on the large, colorful quilt spread out on the grass in his backyard, Clever resident Jason Hoggett’s smile shows his pleasure in his creation.
“I started out with 3-inch quilt blocks and then I made them bigger and bigger,” Jason said. “I shaped it like Missouri because I’m from Missouri. I like Missouri. I get material from the thrift shop, Goodwill, garage sales and from friends and neighbors. Sometimes I buy a large piece and cut it up. I do quilting everyday. I’ll probably work on it all winter.” There are more than a thousand panels that make up Jason’s quilt. They are different shapes and sizes. Some are big 2-foot rectangles, some are small 3-inch squares. There are cartoon characters, patterns and stripes and every color imaginable. It covers roughly 2,000 square feet and is beginning to take the shape of the state of Missouri, but it’s nowhere near complete.

“I’m proud of it,” Jason said. “It makes me happy. I want to reach that goal.”
