This is another purchase from the Visions Art Museum Veranda Sale in late August. One of the things that I have discovered about my collecting decisions is that I like to add new techniques. Although there is discharging in some of the quilts, this one is just discharge and a little quilting.
"Weeds" Kathy Piper - San Diego 2011 12"x 12"
Cotton fabric, cotton batting, discharge dyeing, machine quilting.
I like the non-matched binding. Same fabric but it makes a counterpoint since Kathy has made no attempt to make the color lines up.

She has used a very thin thread. Perhaps something thicker, even perle cotton would make the red more of a statement.
With the light, solid background the quilting can be clearly seen. With a bright color thread this could be a quilt on its own.
Nice simple hand printed label - but no contact information. How can I find her if I am interested in seeing more of her quilts?
