Sandra’s journey began in school in Home Economics class. transforming fabric into art as magical. Sewing was the foundation that led me to quilt. Quilting which started as a hobby has now turned my passion into an artistic reality.
She finds inspiration in shades of blue with a focus on blue jeans. She is known for using repurposed denim and other fabrics to create quilting and wearable art projects. She uses recycled denim, yarns, dyed fabrics, and stamps to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary, and also loves to hand stitch using the traditional Japanese Sashiko and Boro embroidery styles and incorporating them as a decorative feature into my designs.
We talked with Sandra about what she has in store for the coming year, where she will be teaching and much more.
