This is the time to order a custom-made, one-of-a kind Memory Quilt made from unused and discarded textiles.

She is the author of "The Quilting Path: A Guide to Spiritual Discovery through Fabric, Thread, and Kabbalah." published by SkyLightPaths Publishing. All quilts are individually handcrafted to your specifications.
