Medley 20x20 2012

A child of immigrant parents, I grew up in a home where things were saved and reused.  These quilts have been put together with materials often discarded in today’s “disposable” society -- dryer sheets, plastic vegetable bags, selvages, clothing labels, fabric swatches, and buttons.  As I worked with them they became less related to trash and more to the art I was trying to produce.
