Quilts for Wainwright

I had the privilege of quilting these two tops for Quilt of Valour. It was my honour to donate my time and supplies to this very important organization. The first one was such a unique pattern that I decide to fully custom quilt it.

On the second top I used the E2E design Malachite and I think it was perfect.

Blue Heron

This is the largest textile art quilt that I have ever worked on. I wish I had calculated how many hours it took me custom quilt it. I did the background separate from the heron and the rocks. Excluding the background, there are over 173,000 stitches and I used 34 colours to complete it.

Update: I am so proud to say that it won an award for Excellence in Threadwork at the 2026 Canadian Quilters Association National Juried Show and was Judge’s Choice at the 2026 Houston International Quilt Festival
