patchwork + applique quilts

I started sewing quilts when I graduated from college and didn’t know what to do with myself. Isaiah’s grandmother gave us a huge, hand-quilted wedding quilt as a gift when we got married, and I’d look at it each morning. One day I thought, I think I could make something like this. So I figured out the mechanics of it, and really ran away with it from there. Making quilts is still one of my greatest joys. It’s a project that can’t be finished all in one day. It requires you to do some planning, to let things take a long time, to breathe deeply and fall into the work, to see the blocks pile up one by one, to make some hand-stitches, and to keep warm when all is said and done. What could be more wonderful?

The images below represent a couple of years of making quilts. I’m not taking commissions at this time, but feel free to reach out if you have questions!
