Losing It by Randa Mulford (California)
In this intriguing original design, there is a progression of color and pattern from the upper left circle (which is a complete kaleidoscope on a lighter background) to the lower right, in which elements of the design are faded and/or missing. The background gradually darkens as the elements fade.
This colorful quilt has a poignant story. As Randa Mulford explains, Losing It
started as a response to watching an elderly friend lose her memory and
personality to dementia. Color and pattern gradually fade away, leaving
only a suggestion of what had been before.
