While specializing in Celtic designs for appliqué, embroidery, sashiko and crayoning, Scarlett also designs scrap quilts, friendship quilts and foundation pieced quilts that are modern innovations on classic patchwork patterns and traditional symbols. Drawing on her cultural heritage, she combines eastern influences with her Celtic work. Besides her contemporary appliqué and patchwork quilts, Scarlett has also designed unique Wearable Art pieces and Art Quilts.

“Our guild recently hosted our first virtual speaker, Scarlett Rose. The lecture she presented was ‘Quilts + Genealogy = Family Stories.’ What a fantastic lecture! Who knew so much family history can be found in a quilt! Her presentation consisted of a PowerPoint presentation and a live portion. The PowerPoint portion was well prepared. All of her pictures were clear, vibrant and in focus. Not only did she share full quilts, but also up close detail of quilt blocks as well. She managed to capture detail in all of her photos. If you have members that share an interest in old quilts as well as family research and documentation, I would highly recommend this lecture! Not only did she totally draw us into the past, she inspired many of us to start documenting our own family histories through the use of quilts for generations to come!”
