Most of my work here, is in a style which originated in Baltimore Maryland in the mid 1800's, and brought back into popularity by author Elly Sienkiewicz. Many of the patterns shown here are from books published by Sienkiewicz, some are original works by Sandra. Sandra has worked in this genre for 20 years, and has taught hundreds of students in the art of hand appliqué, silk ribbon embroidery, and wired ribbon roses.
This was the “Outstanding Large Quilt” winner at the Road to California show, January 2019. Designed by Sandra, and quilted by Kris Spray of Stockton Ca.
Most of the patterns in this quilt were from the "Baltimore Beauties and Beyond" series of books by Elly Sienkiewicz. Center block by Sandra. Quilted by Creative Quilting of Galt.
