you still can
September 25 - February 26

YOU STILL CAN is a reflection of possibility amidst chaos and heartbreak. With this quilt I hope to capture the warmth and seeds of hope of the summer garden. Floral fabrics reign and an improv quilt style attempts to capture the roving nature of a garden. Flowers and fabric are both slow, beautiful, unfolding mediums. The garden and studio, places to practice possibility, softness, and faith. Read more about this series here.
