Meet the Maker - Kayla H

 Kayla has been a member of our guild since the beginning (October 2010).  

Kayla started quilting 14 years ago while in graduate school.  

Her favorite sewing is "monochromatic sheets" of patchwork to use in her quilts.  

They often become large scale traditional blocks that resemble a barn quilt.

Kayla loves the history of quilting and always tries to find quilt museums or exhibits with quilts when on vacation.  Her favorite so far: Between the Layers: Art and Story in Tennessee Quilts, displayed at the  Tennessee State Museum.

She sews and quilts on her domestic machine, a Juki TL. 

 

Someday she hopes to finish a hand pieced and hand quilted bed quilt.
