Meet Bre Charlottesville, Virginia

Bre makes the work.

Her mom and grandma taught her to sew; today she makes quilts, bags, and other quilted goods.

RoseQuiltCo is the place where that work is shared: finished pieces, close details, and practical notes from the studio.

Aaron photographs the work. Bob supervises.
