So much goes into a quilt, more than fabric and thread. So much ‘life’ happens during the creation process in addition to the time, trials and tribulations, love etc. mixed in there too. Maybe that’s why some quilts ‘speak’ to us and why we get attached to them? The maker(s) and the quilt become so integrated and intertwined over the course of its creation that they become one.
Quilts have a story to tell - your story.
Before and after photographs of quilts can be dramatic. I love to watch a quilt top come to life with the addition of the quilting and become a quilt that will be treasured for many years and generations.
I hope you’ll join me on this adventure. This journey of progress to finish, create, share, and, hopefully, inspire in some small way.
New videos will be published on Thursdays.
