Piecemeal One Piece at a Time I am thrilled to bring you a vibrant and happy collection of fabrics I called Piecemeal.

Designed in pretty and vacant ‘daylight’’ color with detailed imagery and scaled perspective ~ to inspire a personal crafting experience.

Just as piecing a quilt is a joyful process when we create, reshape and discover new patterns to eventually find something new is taking form.

And as, in our own lives, we can look inward to explore the pieces we may need to change and re~pattern to find ourselves again.

With self love and kindness we can break off the pieces we don’t need, and embrace those beautiful, kind and loving bits we need.

As in my own life through sudden change, I continue to piecemeal beauty, laughter, love and kindness to craft a renewed me.

Through these prints I invite you to explore your personal journey.

Be yourself, be strong and be confident in who you really are because you deserve it and you are beautiful. tg

The art of Piecemeal closely examines little parts of flowers and leaves we don’t really see or notice; combined with playful and unexpected pattern; pure, true color and imagery, creating a beautiful yet complicated concoction. Piecemeal offers color opportunities across all three palettes allowing many variations; Eight unique prints in varying scale and detail allowing a multitude of sewing options.

I designed Piecemeal to offer an intimate joyful and personal creative canvas.

I woke in bits, like all children, piecemeal over the years.

I discovered myself and the world, and forgot them, and discovered them again.

- Annie Dillard

About Tina I live my life by following my heart, intuition and some very big dreams. It seems to me if you take the time to look inward and explore who you are and who you want to be, you can, piece by piece, make it happen. Change has been a constant in my life starting with migration from another continent, local geographical change over the years, and family changes. I am passionate about my work and I feel as if I am at a time in my life where I am the best person I have been. Why? Because I have found balance in my personal and work life; I have learned to listen, and take moments to stop and care for me. I am so encouraged by my customer base and their personal stories which make me want to be a stronger, kinder, more compassionate human being.

I hope you like Piecemeal and what it stands for. Take the time for a personal journey to discover what is happiest for you.
