About Scarlett Rose:

Scarlett Rose started quilting in 1976, teaching in 1986 and quilt judging in the 1990s. Scarlett teaches and lectures for quilt guilds, shops and conferences throughout the United States and has taught twice in Japan.
Scarlett is a Northstate board member of the California Heritage Quilt Project. She is active in documenting quilts on the Quilt Index.
While specializing in Celtic designs for all kinds of appliqué, embroidery, Sashiko, color markering and crayoning, Scarlett also designs scrap quilts, friendship quilts and foundation pieced quilts that are Modern innovations on classic patchwork patterns. She enjoys interpreting traditional symbols common to her multicultural heritage.
Scarlett combines her Japanese and Ainu (indigenous Japanese) influences with her Celtic work. Besides her contemporary appliqué and patchwork quilts, Scarlett has also designed unique Wearable Art pieces and Art Quilts. She joined the Modern Quilt Guild in 2020 and is exploring new directions for her designs.
In 2013, Scarlett began designing custom printed fabric for bed size quilt panels featuring Celtic knots that are perfect quilting, hand embroidery and embellishment.
