My Collection

A craft of the Bengal region, the tradition of Kantha makes something beautiful and useful from discarded clothes by layering and holding together with a small straight running stitch.
Extraordinary Textiles

Afghani camel wool embroidery on hand woven hemp with wonderful primitive imagery.
About Me
I am a quilter and quilt collector. Basically I’m just passionate about anything quilting. My first major piece arrived in my collection in 2016 on my 50th birthday when I found a Boer War era Remember Me pincushion made from military uniform fabrics.
Group Presentations
It gives me great joy to share my treasures with others. Ask me about having some or all of my collection visit for your group’s viewing pleasure in a show and tell format.
