I'm Laura.

I’m an artist working mostly in fiber, particularly quilts.

Some of my quilts are heartfelt gifts made especially for a beloved recipient. I hope these quilts are used and washed and squished and picnicked on.

Some of my quilts are art works with themes of reflection, acceptance, time, and memory. These quilts will probably never be used on a bed and that’s okay.

I live just outside of Chicago with my family and cats. I’m currently going back to school after a 15 year hiatus. I love being back in school, and I especially love making work for my undergrad art classes.

I share my work on instagram @laurahartrich.
