Tower Creations by Madeline
Meet the Maker
I’ve always loved creating, with a philosophy of renew, redo, and repurpose. My work includes scarves with a unique edging technique, fabric baskets, soft fabric pins, and repurposed treasures like wooden spool scissor holders and chipped china jewelry trays.
Driven by both sustainability and imagination, I transform scraps and vintage finds into functional art while also designing new, one-of-a-kind pieces. Each creation is made with care, carrying its own quiet story of transformation.
Inspired by the meaning of my name, Madeline, I see my work as a tower—grounded in strength, elevated by creativity, and open to light. I’m deeply grateful for my supportive husband, our blended family of four children, two daughters-in-law, and three grandchildren—my greatest motivators. And of course, Ollie, our four-legged house boss, who graciously allows us to share her home.
How it’s Made
When it comes to making fabric rope, there are no rules. You can use a variety of fabrics as well as colors. This fabric rope trivet was made using a variety of what I had on hand. What takes the longest amount of time is making the rope. You have a variety of different lengths and have to add the just right or things won't turn our well. Once that is done and you have a lot of rope, then you can go to the machine and form and shape it into what you want. This time it was a trivet that can be used for many things.
