Simply Quilts visit the studio of Kay Khan, an artist who makes sculpted quilt vases. By heavily stitching the fabric, Kay forms stiff panels that she "sculpts" into three-dimensional objects.

Kay describes her technique as "stitching with a lot of layers." It’s a different approach because she is not piecing. She says, "It’s like using mosaic and I can cut it and piece it back together and construct it."
