Suzanne Uschold

Final Day in Store Saturday, November 1st

Suzanne Uschold was born and raised near Buffalo, NY but has lived in West Seattle since 1987. After taking a basic quilting class in 2014 and making some traditional quilts, she quickly discovered a passion for art quilts, with a special interest in nature and landscapes.

The Pacific Northwest offers endless inspiration for her art with its majestic mountains, towering evergreens, crashing waves, roaring rivers and beautiful wildlife. Suzanne enjoys capturing this beauty with her camera while walking around local parks and gardens and on scenic drives. She loves the challenge of turning a photo into a quilt using a variety of techniques including collage, applique, thread painting and free motion quilting. While some art quilters embellish their work with paint, she prefers to “paint” quilts, using only fabric and thread, and the occasional addition of lace, cheesecloth or even cotton balls.

Suzanne is a member of Contemporary QuiltArt Association. She has shown her work in a variety of places including the International Quilt and Fiber Arts Festival, Schack Art Center, Pacific NW Quilt and Fiber Arts Museum and Vashon Center for the Arts.
