Join me tomorrow for the CutterPillar Handmade Collective on June 17 at 12:00 PM Mountain Time! We'll be talking creativity, inspiration, projects, and probably giving each other a few more reasons to buy fabric we absolutely "need."

I'd love to see you there!

History. Nostalgia. And fabric that tells a story. Meet Robbie Berg of Phoenix Rising Creates - art quilter, fiber artist, and maker of 25+ years whose work lives at the intersection of memory and textile art.

Robbie's HC session takes you behind the scenes of Ode to the Mother Road - an art quilt inspired by Route 66. You will see her full creative process including how she constructs fully mailable quilted fabric postcards from vintage imagery and personal travel photos. Yes. Actually mailable. Through the actual mail.

She is also giving away a framed quilted postcard made from a vintage handkerchief - and the first 50 newsletter subscribers at phoenixrisingcreates.com/newsletter get a handmade cork spreader as a thank you gift.

The Handmade Collective runs June 17-19. Free to attend. Register at the link in bio.

I'm excited to join The Handmade Collective with CutterPillar on June 17th to share the story behind Ode to the Mother Road—an art quilt inspired by the history and nostalgia of Route 66.

From vintage postcards and travel photos to fabric, appliqué, and quilting, I'll show how inspiration becomes textile art.

What story would you stitch into a quilt? 🧵✨

Some quilts tell a story. And some quilts carry an entire road trip worth of history, nostalgia, and memory in every stitch. We are thrilled to welcome Robbie Berg of Phoenix Rising Creates to the Handmade Collective - and the story behind this presenter and her work is one of the most extraordinary...

I’m featured in the CutterPillar Maker's Minute blog sharing the story behind Phoenix Rising Creates—my work as a maker, crafter, and professional chaos coordinator of ideas-in-progress.

It’s always a little surreal seeing your creative process translated into words.

If you’ve ever been curious about what really happens behind the projects—the creative clutter, the problem-solving, the late-night “this absolutely will work” confidence spiral—it’s all in there.
