  • Machine wash delicate in cold water with a gentle detergent. Tumble dry low or lay flat to dry.

    Fabric will crinkle slightly after the first wash and will soften with use and love.

  • Add a hanging sleeve to turn your quilt into a piece of wall art. The sleeve is made with the same fabric as the quilt back and lies flat when not hanging, so you can still use it as a quilt. Simply slide a rod through the sleeve and hang on each end.

  • The Quarry designs were inspired by the remains of a Frankish castle on the Greek island of Paros. The castle was built in the 1200s out of cut marble taken from ancient temples across the island, the marble originating from the island’s renowned quarries. The remains represent an example of “spolia,” a Latin word now used to refer to stones being taken from one building and repurposed into another. This is most evident through the many Grecian columns embedded in the walls, their bases creating distinct circular shapes. Portions of the castle fell into the sea during a landslide in the 18th century, and what remains has now been incorporated into surrounding homes and churches, furthering the cycle of reuse.
