Recently, a student at Union Presbyterian Seminary

Recently, a student at Union Presbyterian Seminary shared a project: “Perfect Progress” is a crocheted piece made entirely out of second hand yarn in a variety of materials including cotton, acrylic, and artificial silk. Modeled after a widely-used pride flag, the variations in color represent the diversity of the LGBTQ+ community. As different materials come together to create a flag, the individuals come together to create a community. Flaws were intentionally left within this project to remind us that progress is never truly perfect, but it can be “perfect enough” said the artist, Jensen Brushwood. @upsem
