Patched Memories

by Sen McGlinn + Sonja van Kerkhoff, 2012
covering made for a bed or a bench

View of the Aalmarkt from the Hoofdwaag footbridge





Initially I started sewing these items: my eldest son's blanket as a child, odd gloves, and other items now outgrown by my children as a bedspread for the bed in the "Room of Memories sculpture. But then it took on a life of its own after we dismanteled the sculpture.
