Pursuing Passion

Hello. Welcome to the blog. We are Aiko & Archer Designs. And we quilt.

Some people hear "quilt" or "quilting" and automatically think "old lady hobby". I used to think that. I mean, only old church ladies pursue such an archaic past-time, right? Then I found fabric. Bright, beautiful, fabric. Fabric that when paired together in modern and interesting patterns makes one's heart flutter. I found happiness:




The idea of creating an heirloom, a conversation piece, a snuggly security blanket that reflects such joy and creativity --- that's what I want to do. That's what I want to pursue. Archer & Aiko designs is my avenue for this passion. I desire to create modern quilts for modern kids.

This blog is a chronicle of my journey to transition a hobby to a business, a desire to a pursuit. It will be a long journey, one with ups and downs -- successes and failures, but worth it in the end:
