Thanks for visiting!

My name is Cassandra, and I have been sewing for as long as I can remember. I love looking for inspiration in my surroundings, and my life as a theatrical scenic and costume designer heavily influences my quilt designs.

I’m sooo close to having this be large enough! 🧵 In 2020 I was fortunate to spend almost three weeks on Mackinac Island as an artist in residence. It was very inspiring, and I made several small pieces while I was there. Now that I have had time to reflect on the experience, I am moving towards making some more in depth work. #mackinacislandquilts #quiltingmackinac #mackinacislandart #mackinacislandtextiles #mackinacisland #mackinacisland2020 #mackinacislandartistinresidence #mackinacartistinresidence #quiltinginspiration #inspiredquilting #quilt #quilting #modernquilt #modernquilting #100dayproject #pandemicquilting #aurifil #aurifilthread #aurifilosopher #improvquilting #improvpiecing

Here is my first “art” quilt. Circa 1990-something. My mom came across this mini quilt of mine while she was sorting through her past quilts. Most of the fabrics are commercial prints, but the face is painted. #quilt #quilting #artquilt #artquilting #printfabric #miniquilt #cranequilt #birdquilt #waterquilt #pictorialquilt #pictorialquilts #throwbackquilt
