Guest Artist Bio:
Chelsea Sanford is a born and raised Oregonian who currently lives in Central Oregon with her lovely partner and 3 amazing fur babies. She has been using fibers through creation since she was 6 years old and was taught by her grandmother. Her passion for embroidery and hand quilting took a turn for the serious during the pandemic. Her work evolved from small embroidery pieces to much larger quilted pieces. All of these she creates completely by hand. She strives to use ‘new-to-her’ fabric and materials to curb the fiber waste in the world, while also allowing the materials she has on hand to inspire her work! Her pieces speak to her ongoing battle with mental health, her queer identity, and her ties to the communities she is a part of. Her art is a reflection of who she is to the fullest.
