Karen Dawson

I love how Karen Dawson explained that sometimes out of our greatest struggles comes one of our biggest gifts or blessings.  She has such a positive outlook and we had a wonderful time visiting.  Although she grew up in England, she now lives in a neighboring town from where I grew up.  Remember to also take a look at her Etsy shop, FabricSpeaks.

Hawaiian quilt. Karen’s first quilt.

Rag quilt was a gift for her grandmother.

This very random scrap quilt is a king size made ENTIRELY of leftover fabric. Both top and bottom! Karen cut out all the squares while recovering from major surgery.

T-shirt quilt made for her daughter.

And here’s the quilt she made for her niece.
