So I can’t post final pictures of the two Diverted Destruction pieces here until the end of May, since one will be in a magazine and I don’t know why not the other, but whatever…the photographer has finished, so here are details of both pieces.
This is Upholstered Nude, finished back in March…
It was made entirely of recycled upholstery fabrics from those annoying sample books, except for the background, which is from the stash of my friend Mariah.
Mariah supplied all the fabrics for the second piece, By All Means…
Forcing me to work with a range of colors that weren’t really planned, but also to use leftover blocks and strips and bits and pieces from her previous quilts…
Cuz, honey, y’all know I don’t piece my backgrounds.
I will be posting the full pieces the end of May…not sure which one will be in the show, because I don’t get to pick that, but the opening is the end of June in Los Angeles. Will let you know details as we get closer to the day.
I’m just glad to have them both done EARLY. How strange.

I find the textures on the upholstery person very appealing – the colors are outside your usual range too. The pieced background person is also lovely.
