Chris Marchini is a quilt pattern designer putting his own unique twist on this timeless artform. After watching quilting videos on YouTube for years, he decided to make a quilt for his mother-in-law for Christmas, which led to him making additional quilts for more family members as gifts. After not being able to find a pattern to match with an idea for a quilt, he started drafting his own patterns.
Chris has gained popularity online, growing a large audience on TikTok where he posts short videos ranging from how-to tutorials to fabric pulls for upcoming projects. You can follow him on social media @RoseCityOriginals and purchase his step-by-step quilt patterns at rosecityoriginals.com.
