Patterns for beautiful quilts and the people who love making them.

Broken River Quilts began with a simple idea: create patterns that are enjoyable to make, easy to follow and showcase the fabrics you've been saving for the perfect project. From quick weekend quilts to relaxing English Paper Piecing, every pattern is created to help you enjoy the journey from first cut to final stitch.

Hello, I'm Karen.

From my home in North East Victoria, I design quilt patterns to help makers slow down, enjoy the creative process and create quilts they'll treasure for years to come.

I believe quilts are made to be used, beautiful fabrics are meant to be cut, and every finished quilt—perfect or not—is something to celebrate.
