Coverlet

Over a period of several months I took apart and then remade the quilt that had laid on my bed for over 10 years. I wanted to work with material that had laid next to the skin of myself and my partner. This was a cheap quilt that we had bought at Target. Over years of use it started to develop it’s own unique character. When it came time to replace it instead of discarding it, I wanted to memorialize and pay homage to the accumulation of time and intimacy it had witnessed.
