Make Modern is Australia’s only dedicated modern quilt magazine, published by a small team of passionate quilters in Australia. Each issue is 100+ pages jam-packed with beautiful patterns and articles to inspire. Our beautiful magazine is delivered bimonthly to thousands of quilters in 70+ countries. We have created an incredible international community of modern makers who are engaged, creative, inspiring and love quilting … just like us!

How can you be involved?

If you’re in the creative field, I would love to work with you to showcase your business to our huge community of modern quilters. I also welcome fellow SA Women to join our team of makers – we are always looking for quilt patterns and sewing projects (cushions, bags, pouches, home decor items) that suit our modern aesthetic. Peruse our Pattern Gallery and read an issue of our magazine to get a taste of our style.

A little about me…

Before Make Modern, I worked as a research scientist at Flinders University and enjoyed quilting as a hobby. When the magazine took off, I had to make the difficult decision to leave my university job to focus on Make Modern. I love working for myself but digital work can be isolating and a little lonely, and I miss morning tea breaks with colleagues! Cue SA Woman … I look forward to sharing a coffee, throwing ideas around and connecting with other passionate business women, creatives would be a bonus!
