The Honey Quilt is made with a variety of linen fabrics that were dyed throughout the warm months of 2025 in my garden side studio.
In addition to only using home grown and locally foraged dye stuffs, the yellows, ambers and warm browns in this quilt were achieved without the use of synthesized alum metal salt mordants. Instead I used a combination of plant based alum mordant (ground symplocos leaf) and soy milk pretreatment to fix the plant based color to the linen fabric. The blacks for this quilt were achieved with a combination of black walnut, indigo and iron.
I chose to use a natural wool batting for the Honey Quilt. The high loft of the batting in combination with the hand quilted design creates a beautiful visual and physical texture. This quilt is sumptuously cozy and endlessly cuddlable.
Dimensions: 76in X 88in
Note: Natural wool batting is untreated by chemical stabilizers so the honey quilt will require hand washing when the time comes, but if were being honest, it best for the longevity of any quilt to be hand washed and air dried.
The Poppy Quilt was inspired by a quilt block I created for a collaborative community quilt project that raised mutual aid funds for Gaza in December 2023.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When that project concluded, I felt a strong need to continue channeling my creative energy toward maintaining awareness of the ongoing genocide, with the ultimate goal of raising more funds for mutual aid efforts.

All of the cotton fabric used in this quilt was dyed with plants that I foraged or grew over the course of 2 years, with the exception of a small floral piece on the back. The plants used for dyeing include madder, indigo, weld, goldenrod, marigold, redbud, oak, and sumac.

The quilt has an organic cotton batting. It is machine pieces and hand quilted with sashiko thread.

This quilt is a riff on the traditional log cabin barn raiser design. The rich blacks contrast elegantly with the lighter sage and lavender elements giving this quilt a striking graphic feel. I machine pieced this quilt using linen fabric which I dyed with plants grown in my dye garden and foraged locally. The batting is organic cotton and the hand quilting is stitched with cotton sashiko thread.

After a fruitful season of dyeing in 2024 I found myself with a stack of purple and green plant dyed fabric. Most of these colors were many layered in the making. Greens coming from marigold and weld over-dyed with indigo and then sometimes dyed again in weld. Some purples were birthed from the play between madder and indigo while other purples given by the Hopi sunflower seed then dyed on soy pretreated fabric. And of course, that pop of madder pink.
I used this rich pallet to create a symphony of a log cabin quilt. Truly my most ambitious quilt to date.
All of the fabric is linen dyed by me with plants that I grew or foraged with the exception of the purple panel on the back. That was a thrifted linen sheet that matched the pallet to perfectly not to use as is.
The quilting is done by hand with cotton sashiko thread.
I used Sonoma natural wool batting which, in combination with the hand quilting, gives a luxurious loft as well as supple visual texture.

When I started to plan my winter quilt projects the first thing I did was pull out all the plant dyed fabric I had worked on over the summer. Immediately, a pallet of greens and purples came together and inspired an olive quilt design.
olive trees are a symbol of peace, resilience, and the Palestinian peoples rootedness in their land.
Some of the plants from my dye garden that I used to dye the fabric for this quilt are: Hopi sunflower seed, madder root, indigo, weld and marigold.
I made this small olive quilt to raffle for mutual aid for Gaza. The raffle is open February 11th -23rd 2025. See @makersformutualaid on IG for details
