Rounding out this Thankfulness Series in November is the lovely and talented Liberty Worth on this week’s episode.
Liberty shares how she takes your precious memories from fabrics, like lace, cotton, silk, wool, corduroy, and denim from that scarf you got on a trip to Italy, a wedding or bridesmaids dress, or a loved one’s favorite shirt, and turns it into art.
She believes that fabric holds memories, and her mission is to take those sentimental items that may be taking up space in your drawers, closet, or storage area and transform them into functional quilts for a bed or hanging wall art. These heirloom quality works of art are a modern take on quilted designs that will tell meaningful stories for generations to come.
As an organizer, I love how she takes these important, sentimental items that may be crowding your space or reading as clutter and creates a simplified, artistic way for the whole family to enjoy them!
Not only did we talk about her masterful quilts, but we dove into why serving the community through volunteering, teaching others how to sew, cranking out masks for those in need, and working on a neighborhood beautification project in downtown LA, absolutely lights her up!

This episode is joyful and definitely inspires me to let my treasured pieces shine in a new way. I hope you’ll feel the same!
