2020-2025 Quilt Crusader Restorations 

• Explore the 'Quilt Restoration' gallery to see images of my work.

• A very exquisite 1930's satin checkerboard quilt gifted to a friend in dire need of restoration.  Binding was removed and replaced.  Satin squares were stitched back together and fabric damage to the back was repaired.  Looking better for a 100 year old quilt!

• A very sentimental daughter's quilt made by her Mom in need of some tender loving care.  This very soft 1950's 6 Point Star quilt needed stars replaced, sewn on and tufted. It will return to her guest bedroom to cuddle under for future visits from her family.

• A well loved Grandson's 1960's 14 petal Dresden Plate quilt lovingly made by his Grandmother.  Many petals needed to be replaced or repaired, finishing with hand quilting.  This quilt will continue keeping this couple warm on their bed at their farm for many years to come. 

• A Queen Size one cloth quilted from the 1970’s was in need of a re-quilting when the owner noticed the thread decomposing.

• A small “Kitty” quilt that was inherited but never finished was completed to be used by Bijou the owners cat.

• A very sentimental “Tree of Life” quilt that was hand quilted by the Mother of a dear friend of the owner. It needed a good wash and many smaller restorations.

• A very iconic Canadian “Parasol Lady” from the 1950’s in need of repair of a damaged Lady.

• A late 1880's Crazy quilt from Scotland stitched by a Great Auntie.  Replaced the deteriorating backing,  documented, conserved and placed in museum textile storage boxes for another hundred years!

• A favourite family antique quilt that was threadbare was enveloped with a new quilt top and back, extending it's life for the owner. 

• A mid-century and a very sentimental quilt was stitched back together for a new beginning. 

• A long lost lovingly hand-stitched by Grandmother, this Boat quilt was restored for a brother from his sister as a fabulous birthday gift. 

• A hand sewn silk wall-hanging of a Log Cabin quilt was restored and placed in a shadowbox to admire for years to come.

• A Mother’s handmade quilt for her aspiring actress daughter with embroidered titles of all the Musical shows she has sang in! A most loved ‘Remembrance’ quilt for the daughter restored for the memories.

• A very Sentimental Log Cabin quilt made by a Sister-in-Law for her favourite Brother-in-Law. Restored, washed and back on the bed!
