A quilt by Sarah Nishiura

89.5" x 77.5"

There are many traditional quilts with zig zag patterns. These are often called “Streak of Lightning” and they are some of my favorites. This quilt is my own version of a  Streak of Lightening quilt. It is called “Thundersnow” in memory of a strange and dramatic snowstorm that hit Chicago as I was piecing it. The storm included blizzard-like snow and wind but also thunder and lightning, an extremely rare occurrence. This quilt is my tribute to the drama of Chicago in winter.

100% cotton recycled and new material, machine pieced, hand quilted

Combining original designs with traditional techniques, Sarah Nishiura’s quilts are pieced from 100% cotton recycled and vintage materials, pieced with new yardage, and quilted by hand. Each quilt is one of a kind, suitable for warmth or display.

The quilt comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and a custom cotton bag. Shipping and insurance are free to a domestic US address.

A Chicago-based quiltmaker, Sarah Nishiura utilizes traditional techniques to craft quilts out of recycled and vintage materials. Sarah’s work explores and celebrates the infinite possibilities of geometric design. Her quilts have been exhibited in museums and galleries internationally, and are included in private, corporate and public art collections throughout the US.
