About
Driven by a deep-rooted passion for preserving the rich heritage of quilt-making, Mercedes is dedicated to revitalising this timeless craft, particularly within her native Wales, which serves as a wellspring of inspiration.
In the gentle art of hand sewing, Mercedes is guided by the principles of the Slow Stitch Movement - immersing herself in the therapeutic rhythm of repetitive stitching, recognising its myriad benefits for emotional well-being.
Mercedes meticulously crafts her own designs by hand, channeling creativity and innovation into every stitch. With each creation, she weaves a narrative that celebrates the beauty of tradition while pushing the boundaries of contemporary quilt artistry.
