Four Corners Camera Straps
The Four Corners Strap Collection uses traditional and re-invented quilt patterns to create portraits of each landscape that make up the four corner touchstone in the United States between Colorado, Arizona, Utah and New Mexico. Narratives inspired by plants, skylines, rock formations and water from these unique environments stimulate reverence for the massive grandeur of the landscapes. The versatile straps modernize the historic, functional, heirloom intentions behind quilts. They are durable, interchangeable, and designed for long-term use, with the flexibility to attach to any messenger bag, camera, or purse as an everyday add-on, bold statement, or heirloom accessory. This collection encourages consumers to shop slow by offering timeless colors and to slow down their explorations with film instead of instant snapshots.

Final Quilted Straps
I digitally printed the designs onto a cotton twill fabric then quilted them to another locally sourced sturdy cotton and attached hardware for a traditional, durable, and breathable design.
