Earthseed, Part 7: The 28 Dollar Scrunchie (8 of 15)
Art does its work in the world of tikkun olam, whether it is small to be accessible to the limited discretionary income of some patrons or large to fill a space or warm a lap.
These morsels of the Earthseed quilt batch stand in solidarity with a fellow textile artist’s experience with a customer’s disdain that she charged $28 for a hand-made scrunchie, crafted sustainably from scraps of the hand-dyed textiles she uses in her other work.
These 9”x9” mini-quilts declare that the value of art lies in the hands of the maker, not in comparison to merchandise produced through exploitative labor practices.
