Sara’s thoughtful designs result in quilts filled with special meaning.

She explains the church and cross symbolism in the introduction:

“These quilts may evoke thoughts about deep family bonds and even the meanings of life and death or right and wrong. I feel that it’s good to be able to express these things in a familiar, comfortable way. These patterns make perfect, special quilts for a wedding, a first communion, or a get well present. They are gifts with extra love and meaning.”
