  • Quiltingjr.com — Quilt Jr. was started by Martha and Alma when their grandchildren became old enough to start sewing. They realized how important it was to pass on the skills and love of quilting they had learned from their mothers and grandmothers to their own children and grandchildren.
  • QuiltGem Cards — Created by Lancaster, PA artist and our friend Melissa Carroll, QuiltGem Greeting Cards begin with her original fine art photograph of a gem, rock or mineral from the extensive collection of her late father, John M. Ward. By manipulating the mineral’s colors, textures and natural shapes, the artist “stitches” portions of detail from the photograph to create the repeated, quilt-inspired design to create the final art for QuiltGem Cards.
