Rita Cassar has been quilting for decades, stitching patches of fabrics together to gift family and friends with one of a kind quilted gems they can treasure forever 💘
Not only making but also teaching, Rita describes her love for quilting as an “addiction” that she finds not only satisfying but therapeutic. Rita’s passion for the art of quilting made her the perfect fit for our latest project – Gorman Upcycle.
When Rita’s daughter, a veteran Gorman designer, asked if she could make use of collected fabric remnants from over the years she jumped at the chance. Keeping it all in the family felt right for such a special project. @rita.cassar.sews has approached Gorman Upcycle the same way she does when making quilts for her loved ones, patiently sewing together printed pieces of archive prints to create quilts that feel like Gorman family heirlooms.
