Alesia Willet

Born in Kentucky, Alesia learned to sew from her mom and both grandmothers, each with a unique style that shaped her love for creating. She started sewing at just five years old, made her own clothes in middle school, and began quilting soon after. What started as a hobby quickly became her therapy — and her passion grew right along with her sewing space!

Though color once felt like her biggest challenge, learning to master it transformed her quilting journey and inspired her to become a Certified Color Confidence Instructor. Alesia loves blending traditional techniques with modern design and helping quilters gain confidence with color. Her warm teaching style encourages creativity, learning, and fun — making every class an inspiring experience!
