Skye Thistle Quilts

I fell in love with quilting almost 25 years ago. The moment I see a quilt shop my heart skips a beat and my fingers get excited. My creativity starts roaring and I cannot wait to fill my eyes with beautiful colors, designs, and patterns. As I glide through the isles, I begin to visualize patterns and designs as I touch and feel the bolts of fabric. 

The idea for Skye Thistle Quilts came to me one day when I was doodling my latest crazy idea in my sketchbook. Something told me that I needed to come up with a name to my dream quilt pattern shop. Skye is the name of a nearby road my husband grew up on, and Thistle is the emblematic Scottish flower to represent the Scottish heritage that is so very prominent in our area. Every girl can have a dream, right? 

I love learning new techniques and perfecting my skills to create beautiful quilts. Sharing my knowledge to promote the art of quilting with other quilters is so important to me. I recently had the opportunity to teach at a local quilt shop which fueled my passion even more. This inspired me to design my very first pattern and little did I know that this dream would become a reality! I am so incredibly grateful for this.

My goal is to create beautiful and simple patterns that are achievable by quilters of all skill levels. There truly is nothing more rewarding than seeing my designs come to life through the eyes of another quilter. I cannot wait to see what you create! - Annik
