These small art quilts are Laura’s original designs and reflect her sense of fun and whimsy. Each design is improvised, making it one of a kind. Created with cotton or silk fabrics, the artwork is hand embroidered with her hand-dyed thread.
Art quilts come with a hanging loop or sleeve for easy display. Read about quilt care and display here.
