Jen's Old Quilts

Jen's Old Quilts I love quilts! I am fascinated by the creativity, complexity, and craftsmanship of something well made. My goal is to bring the forgotten back to life.

I celebrate the forgotten makers of hand-stitched quilts who transformed simple fabrics into lasting works of art, preserving these heirlooms by collecting, restoring, buying, and selling antique and vintage quilts selected for their quality and artistry I appreciate the endless hours dedicated by the unknown quilter using their skills and creative minds to create works of art that were also useful in their homes. Something that can once again be appreciated and loved.

I have two quilts going to the New England Quilt Museum for their paper piecing exhibit, and I’m currently sewing sleeves onto them for hanging. It’s a time-consuming little job, but it’s also making me appreciate even more what the unknown makers of these quilts accomplished. The hours of piecing, stitching, quilting, and sheer patience that went into creating these treasures are truly amazing.
