Welcome to Aqua Paisley Studio!

"There are stories hidden in the language we use, whether we are conscious of them or not they tell the truth of our heart and minds." - Cheryl Strayed
Aqua Paisley Studio is dedicated to the language of quiltmaking and 'the story behind the quilt'.
My goal is to inspire quilt makers everywhere to follow their bliss and create everyday with intention. Welcome! - Samantha

Let’s Connect

Quilts are so much more than pieces of pretty fabric and thread. They are a tangible part of our life story, and a creative expression of who we are. They can showcase everything from our favourite colours to things we value and our hopes and dreams. Every quilt has its own story.

Did you miss out on the pattern I sent to my newsl

A gentle reminder for anyone who needs to hear it…

Be kind to yourself -
Little wins can generate momentum and create a successful pathway forward.

As my health becomes more of a challenge to navigate, I have to remind myself that small steps add up and progress may take longer than I would like, but creativity is an adventure, not a race 😉

Puppy love ❤️!!

This boy makes my world go around! He forces me to forget myself long enough to make sure he is cared for. And on days when my pain level is out of control - that’s a good thing 👍🏻!!

If only he could learn that creative time is therapy too, and stop eating my fabric whenever I try to sit down to sew, then everything would be perfect 😂

I’ve been reading The Gifts of Imperfection by B

I’ve been reading The Gifts of Imperfection by Brene Brown, where she talks about wholehearted living - it’s been on my reading list for a while and since the 10 year anniversary edition was recently released I thought now would be a good time to read it. I’m only about 1/3 of the way through but so far it’s a beautiful read I want to ponder more deeply…

And it’s made me contemplate renaming this quilt Wholehearted - what do you think??

#wholeheartedquilt yes, no, maybe 🤔 🥰 😂

Hi, from the middle of who knows where?! 😂 Das

Hi, from the middle of who knows where?! 😂

Dash and I have been exploring the Australian coast this week, and as soon as the bags are unpacked and the washing is done, it will be time to get back to work - so that pattern I promised you should be in your inbox soon ❤️☺️🐶💙

A new illustration to start the new year ☺️

I’m trying to decide this morning if I’ll set any creative goals for the new year…

As a general rule, I love the structure that comes with working towards clearly defined goals, but I also appreciate how stress can creep into your life when attaining those goals becomes difficult for any given reason. - and no one needs any self imposed stress when the idea of setting goals is to make our lives better…

It’s a conundrum… 🤷‍♀️😂

Are you setting creative goals this year ??

This Christmas version of my #practicalmagicmini q

This Christmas version of my #practicalmagicmini quilt was a joyful little make during this busy season …

🤶🎄❤️💚

I thought this mini quilt would be a fun quilty alternative to the traditional holiday wreath on the front door - it never quite made it that far, so my front door was naked for Christmas, but there’s always next year, right?! 😂🥰

I think I should have chosen a simpler background for better contrast, but that’s the great thing about mini quilts - they are sometimes examples of what not to do in a big quilt 👍🏻👎🏻😳😂
