mission: re-imagine the ‘engagement’ ring.

some pieces are symbolic. some are metaphors. others are functional, and some are . . not.
some are skeptical, some are hurt & angry. some are a . . warning.
while, at the other end of the engagement spectrum: others are lush, warm and loving.

~QUILTS . . APC / NEW YORK TIMES MAGAZINE

subtext: CRAFT

INTEREST in QUILTS . . shows no sign of abating,
& continue . . . EXPLODING.
with the classic vintage-based ‘abstract’ patterns – being the most popular, hands down.


@tmagazine: We love a good #quilt. Their beauty — the simplicity of working within a quadrilateral figure and their plain geometry — evokes ideas such as community, sisterhood and craft. Beginning April 25, the French label #APC will launch a new line of quilts designed by its longtime collaborator JESSICA OGDEN . . .
