At the start of 2024 I began documenting mass shootings through fabric in a series of quilts.

For 2025 this will be a collaborative effort.

Hi, I’m Erin, a modern quilter based in Southwest Michigan. My focus is on using repurposed materials and creating political commentary quilts. I suspect my cup will runneth over with material the next several years so follow along if you’d like your liberal rage draped in fabulous fabric.
