About Us
The Rainbow Patchwork Studio reopened in late 2023 as a quilting service and online store based in McLeans Ridges, after originally launching in Lismore on Mother’s Day, May 2011. Over the past 12 years, Rainbow Patchwork has weathered three major floods, the COVID pandemic, and significant economic shifts. As a result, our Union Street storefront closed in July 2023.

The Rainbow Patchwork Studio in McLeans Ridges reflects Karen’s long-standing passion for patchwork, which began in the 1990s. Since then, she has become highly skilled in patchwork design, quilt-making, and teaching—skills that continue to thrive in the new space. Every quilt on display, both past and present, is Karen’s own work, expertly quilted using her Gammill long arm machine.

Rainbow Patchwork has long been proud to serve as a specialist patchwork shop, once carrying over 3,000 bolts of fabric. As times have changed, so has our focus. The Rainbow Patchwork Studio offers professional quilting services, a wide selection of wide-back fabrics (270cm wide), economical 5-metre fabric packs, and a curated range of quilting kits. We also stock a small but thoughtfully chosen selection of fabric on the bolt, featuring popular designers such as Tilda. A variety of waddings are also available to support your quilting projects.
