Hello & Welcome!
The Artist/Teacher Behind Kena Quilts
I'm Kena Tangi Dorsey, and I'm a quilt artist, teacher, speaker, mentor, pattern designer and owner of Kena Quilt Studio. I began sewing and quilting almost 20 years ago and have enjoyed designing and selling custom-made modern and traditional quilts ever since.
Now, I have expanded the artistry of my business to focus on helping others revel in the joys of quilt-making. I teach quilting classes using the style and techniques that I’ve fallen in love with while making portrait art quilts, modern quilts, and quilted bags over the years. I love using the big, bold, rich colors that you may find in African wax print fabrics, or Indonesian batiks, and Kaffe Fassett collections, to name a few. They’re so much fun to work with, and I want to share that passion with you!
Take a look around and let me know if you have any questions. You can also connect with me on Facebook and Instagram @kenaquilts
I'm super happy that you stopped by. Come along and join me on this wonderful quilting journey. Together, we can be creative by sewing one beautiful stitch at a time!
All the best,
Kena
