Amanda chats with Mayre Perez about quilting and creating a business to sell her beautiful bags and other handy quilted items.
Mayre Perez is a Maker, Modern Quilter and a lover of crafting one-of-a-kind heirloom pieces. Mayre began sewing during the pandemic lockdown. Her love of baking for her colleagues was rudely interrupted, so she needed a new hobby! Mayre and her mom took on quilting together and her love for fabric and making beautiful, functional items blossomed. With a job change and sewing experience under her belt, Mayre opened her online shop in October of 2022. Her array of bags and quilted items show off a modern aesthetic. Mayre makes beautiful heirloom quality items that make great gifts for everyone you know...and for yourself too! Head to Mayre's shop to check out her amazing inventory and shop while you listen!
