About
Hello! My name is Althea and I am the creator of Nemo & Stitch.
I started quilting 2018 after a soft, gentle nudge on the shoulder from the universe.
Outside of the few handmade quilts in my childhood home, no one I knew quilted. With the encouragement of my grandma and her sewing machine, I found myself determined and immersed in the seemingly endless inspiration online. I didn't know about patterns, quilting supplies or how to sew a 1/4 inch seam, but with the help of Youtube University and the generosity of quilter blogs I found my way through.
That first quilt sparked a creative passion that has lead me here, where I sell my creations and share my favorite quilty things. All of my quilts tie together the traditional with the modern. I like to incorporate vintage, found fabrics with new and riff on traditional quilting blocks passed down to us from the artists before us.
