Bringing History and Poetry to Life with Yesenin Style Quilting

Sergei Yesenin was a Russian poet from the early 1900’s. When artists sifted through the remnants of his house to build a museum dedicated to his life, a quilt his mother had hand crafted in the 1800’s was discovered.

I have spent countless hours researching and piecing together little snippets of information to recreate the techniques to this lost style of quilt-making.

I have only moved a few steps in the journey towards machine sewing, most of this style demands hand-work

I will be sharing tutorials to showcase what I’ve learned over the last few years about these techniques

It is a joy building on the work of masters to bring a lost style of quilt-making back to life and making the techniques available to others
