Unintentional Kantha Art

A new batch of old quilts arrived a few days ago, and while looking at them, I couldn't help thinking that some of those disintegrating textile pieces (see my previous post on worn Kantha quilts) had an aspect of art about them - unintentionally of course, as their makers hardly thought of what the Kantha quilts would look like when their top layers started to peel away. Below is a little taste of this accidental textile art!
