Hello and welcome to my shop. I’m glad you stopped by. My name is Dawn and I have been creating in one form or another for more than 40 years.

"Absolutely loved! Packaged really well, instructions clear and great communication with the seller. Would buy again!"
"When I saw this print, I just could not pass it up!! I had some questions about sizes and the owner of this shop was very helpful and responded very quickly. It was shipped quickly and arrived in perfect condition. I have glass to fit my kitchen table, I used this round table topper in between the glass and the wood. It adds the perfect touch!!!"
"Beautiful!! I love the color combinations of the batik fabrics! Thanks for sharing your talent with others."
"This is so nicely made. It is gorgeously composed and well-crafted with care and pride. Even the hanging hardware and label are perfectly done. Thank you! I am so happy with my beautiful purchase."
"This is much more gorgeous than the pictures because of the delightful color combinations and particularly the delicate touches of orange. It is a perfect addition to my collection."
How it’s Made
I curate the fabric included in each kit. I have a large fabric collection that I pull from; you never know what you might find when going through the piles of fabric. I’m always on the lookout for fabric that I think will make a good mountain or blend well with my current water/beach sand selections.
Each of my art quilt kits contains everything you need to make the quilt shown in the example, including the canvas the quilt gets mounted on. All hanging hardware has already been attached to the canvas and a foam brush is included along with the medium used to attach the quilt to the canvas.
I also take pictures as the quilt progresses showing you the different ways the next strip could have been sewn on. Because each piece of batik is unique the section you get may be different from the piece I used. These pictures are included as a separate pdf file that is included with your purchase.
Step by step directions are included in each box and you can always send me an email or contact me through the Goimagine messaging system and I will be happy to help you and answer any questions you have.

The basics
I have found that creating an original art quilt takes time. Plan on 5 - 6 weeks; more for larger sizes. The amount of detail will also add to the time it takes. I will have a better idea once we have discussed what you are looking for and will provide you with a time estimate and approximate start date.
The largest size I can do as one panel/quilt is 40” square. Larger sizes will be broken up into multiple panels.
Once we have talked and determined the details of your art quilt I will send you a quote spelling out the details of your order. Upon acceptance of that quote I will create a custom listing for you for the initial deposit. This deposit is non-refundable should you cancel the order. Changes or additions to the original quilt design (as described in the quote and deposit listing) may result in additional charges to you and will be due as part of the final payment. The final amount will be due upon completion of the quilt and before it is shipped.
Please note: Quilts that contain subject matter that is so specific to you that they can't be sold to anyone else will require a 100% non-refundable deposit before work is started.
