Sharon Keightley - Quilt Maker and Pattern Designer

Sharon is a passionate quilt pattern designer and quilt maker from Auckland NZ.  A self confessed lover of reproduction fabrics, her favourite thing to do is 'Appliqué' using pieced blocks to complete the quilt. 

"I simply love to design and make quilts, for me it has been an absolute joy to share my patterns and my fondness of vintage and reproduction fabrics. Experimenting with this range of unique fabric styles allows me to add my own historical vision into my design work."

I've learnt so much about the quilting process from talking to Sharon and even feel inspired to try working with fabric and thread myself! From a feed dog and walking foot to Baltimore and antique quilts, Sharon unpacks her process, practice and business in a way that is very inspiring. I'm sure you'll enjoy hearing her story.
