About this Product
Curl up on a chilly afternoon with this handmade, soft quilt and your favorite beverage. It is the perfect size to create your comfy retreat on a chair or sofa, or to add a bit of extra coziness to your bed.
The modern patchwork pattern was inspired by the nurse's cross, making this a thoughtful gift for anyone in the nursing profession.
Included is a lovely large pillow cover done in hexagon shapes using the same fabrics as the quilt, along with a 20" pillow insert. No worries about finding a pillow to match the quilt!
The fabrics are the softest cotton from Art Gallery Fabrics, known for their silky texture. The colors are a mix of vibrant, deep teal and burnt orange, mixed with the palest ivory, white and deep black. The prints mix botanical and celestial themes with modern abstract elements. The black floral fabric is used on the back of the quilt.
I have quilted it lightly so that it is snuggly and not stiff.
The combination of fabric and bamboo batting makes this quilt especially lightweight but still cozy and warm.
I have prewashed the quilt, and you can see the crinkly texture this has created in the photos.

Meet the Maker
It took me by storm . . .
The first time I saw racks and racks of quilting fabric, I thought, "I HAVE to get this into my life!"
If you love color and pattern, you know what I mean.
I bought a sewing machine and took a class. The next thing I knew, I was accumulating quilting tools and fabric at a rapid pace. After a few years, I knew it wasn't a passing fad and I decided to open an online shop.
I've never looked back. It's still a joy for me to select fabrics for a pattern, then press, cut and sew the pieces into something that will bring comfort and joy into someone's home.
So, please look around and share in my love for this art form!

How it’s Made
This quilt was made in my home studio. Premium quilting cotton was used, along with cotton and rayon threads.
The middle layer (the batting) is made of bamboo and silk -- I love using this because it's both natural and a bit lighter in weight than all cotton, though it provides the same level of comfort and breathability. It also has a beautiful drape.
Everything in my shop is made in my clean, smoke-free home.
The quilt is machine washable in cold water and can be tumbled dry. Detailed care instructions will be included with the item. I have prewashed the quilt, and you can see the crinkly texture this has created in the photos.

FAQ'S
- Quilt care: Quilts are machine washable in cold water. A detailed page of care instructions will be included with your quilt order. Should you misplace it, I'm happy to send a copy via email.
- Pricing: A handmade quilt is a labor of love, which is why they become treasured family heirlooms. From choosing a pattern and fabrics to precise cutting and sewing, basting the three quilt layers together and then quilting and binding, it's an intense and time-consuming process. Prices for embroidered pillows vary according to how elaborate the design is: the more colors and elaborate the design, the longer it takes to plan and stitch out.
