Cacilda Meier Artisan "Sparkle Christmas Tree" and Other Hanging Quilt
Item Details
For over two decades, Cacilda Ribeiro Meier has been weaving stories through fabric. A seasoned quilter with a distinctive voice, her one-of-a-kind creations are vibrant reflections of her roots and imagination. Born in Recife, Pernambuco—on Brazil’s sun-drenched northeast coast—Cacilda draws inspiration from the textures and colors of her childhood, the bold geometry of artists like Charley Harper, and the quiet brilliance of the natural world. Her work blends three-dimensional forms and striking patterns, creating quilts that are not only visually compelling but deeply personal.
