While contemporary production emphasizes speed and technology, it also retains a certain fascination with the traces of craft-centered living from the past. In this vein, designers in the fashion world have been integrating pieces into their collections that reference traditional crafts and reflect the qualities of handwork. These handmade elements, filtered through past traditions, can create design opportunities when handled with appropriate references within contemporary fashion and art. One such element is the art of quilting, a significant part of our culture, which offers contemporary possibilities for fashion with its aesthetics and propositions from the past. This study will examine how the art of quilting is handled within the context of design integrity. The two different lives of the dragonfly, which are featured in the exhibition "The Miracle of Metamorphosis," are expressed through design applications within the framework of wearable art. The study focuses on the first part of the exhibition, which tells the story of the dragonfly's first life, spent hidden under its shell underwater. The shell is conceptually considered as a quilt, a shield, and a shelter, with the meaning of "a covering, hiding, protecting, and sheltering cover." This work, expressed through the art of quilting, reflects the experiences of measurement and form in a way that is consistent with design integrity. It also demonstrates that the art of quilting, which is typically applied to two-dimensional surfaces, can be adapted to three-dimensional garment forms.
