103. "Quilt Reading" Rachel Clarke Long Beach, California |
| Machine pieced patchwork from recycled textiles; machine quilted. |
| What better transition from old into new than vintage fabrics and discarded industry samples (which ordinarily would have been sent to a landfill) recycled and reclaimed into this new quilt, which employs traditional historical patchwork techniques to create a QR code; a modern, cell-phone readable barcode with the ability to store text, phone numbers, URLs and other data. Users with a camera phone and cod-reading software would scan this piece to discover that it reads “quilts.” Click here to bid on this quilt on eBay.com 9pm EST on Monday, Nov. 8 through 9pm EST on Monday, Nov. 15 |
