About Bridget

Textile/quilt Artist, Podcaster, Speaker & Teacher 🪡🧵🌿

Hello there! I'm Bridget O'Flaherty, a passionate textile artist and quilter with over 30 years of experience. My journey in textiles has been a deeply personal one, influenced by my heritage and love for nature. Through my artistic exploration, I've found my rhythm and voice, specializing in free-motion embroidery and nature-inspired creations.

I warmly invite you to join me on this incredible journey of sustainable creativity. As a sustainability enthusiast, I believe in the power of shared knowledge and understanding. Together, we can navigate this wild world and create a positive future for generations to come.

At The Sustainable Quilter, we celebrate the beauty of textiles while embracing eco-friendly practices. It's a place where we connect, learn, and grow, inspiring one another along the way. Join our warm and welcoming community, and let's create lasting memories and beautiful, sustainable quilts together.
