Sarah Hedriana is a modern traditionalist quilter whose work is inspired by the beautiful landscapes, farms, and orchards of Northern California. She designs, creates, and sells quilted wall hangings, table runners, pillows covers, throws, and bed quilts. Sarah pieces her quilts so that she can run them through a washer and dryer in order to develop crinkles that add depth and texture. The pieces are a combination of cotton batting, cotton thread, and cotton and linen fabric.

During her childhood in Indiana, Sarah’s mother created a beautiful and welcoming home by sewing napkins, table coverings, and cushions. When Sarah had a family of her own, she decided to learn to sew in order to recreate the cozy atmosphere of her youth. This led her to discover the joy of quilting. With the loving support of her husband Herman, Sarah has been able to work full-time on creating quilts and sharing them with others. She recently started working with Coyuchi, an organic home textiles company based in Point Reyes Station. She currently sells her wares at the Davis Farmers Market.

“My hope is to inspire conversation about what makes something a quilt,” she says. “People tend to think of a quilt as a bedcover but it can be many more things.”
