Soshiro Matsubara-untitled, 2017 acrylic on board, 33 x 21 inches
When I was a girl at home—I reckon I was eight or nine years old—I started making quilts. My mama taught me, show me how to cut the pieces and quilt, too. Back in them days, I didn’t care how they looked, I just put them together using old clothes mostly, and sometimes go down to Linden and get scraps they were throwing away in the clothes factory. The man over the factory down there let folks go through the throw-away stuff. The dump truck going to come get it anyway.
A creator of precisely patterned quilts and free-form, abstract works of rectangular strips—"get-togethers,“ she calls them—Polly Bennett has maintained this diversity of style since her earliest quilts from the 1930s.
