The Curious Career of Yvonne Malone
When people think patchwork and quilts, bedding naturally comes to mind, but these days, patchwork is everywhere: Furniture, rugs, curtains, dinnerware, and even clothing. And, it is beginning to look like the patchwork trend might be here to stay and not just the latest big idea.
For Downers Grove-based designer and quilt maker Yvonne Malone, this is not a surprise. “Quilts are so versatile and can be used throughout the house, not just in the bedroom or nursery. For example, you can use them to add a splash of color and pattern to a room by simply draping a napping size quilt over the back of the sofa or a favorite chair, ready to put to use on chilly nights. Quilts also make great wall hangings that can warm up a space and absorb sound, a benefit in areas with tile, stone, or wood floors.”
Yvonne Malone Studio produces few-of-a-kind and custom quilts for clients, as well as a line of patterns for quilters.
Visit www.YvonneMaloneStudio.com to see some of her quilts and www.YvonneMaloneStudio.BigCartel.com for her patterns.
We will feature a different individual's hobby or career each month. If you know of someone that would like to be featured, email me at lisa@wenzelselectproperties.com.
