Piecing a life from creativity, love, and humor
I've been on Etsy for many years, first as PieceByNumberQuilts. In early 2025, I switched to this new shop to reflect my move to the beautiful country of Switzerland! (You can still visit the old shop to see my prior sales history and customer reviews.)
My specialty is creating designs for paper piecing (also called foundation piecing) because I love the design freedom the technique allows. My hope is to inspire quilters to use my patterns literally as building blocks to spark their own creativity.
My quilt designs are based on my original drawings or photographs. Inspiration comes from many sources - nature, art, mathematics, even doodles! Although I use a computer and software to create my patterns, I still consider them handmade. Every line is carefully and deliberately "drawn" by a mouse or my finger on a touchpad, instead of a pen and ruler. The computer allows a level of precision which would be impossible for me to achieve otherwise.
I love hearing from quilters around the world, whether it's questions or feedback on my patterns, business, or design processes. Thank you for visiting and happy sewing!
