Collection: Pieces to Treasure

Pieces to Treasure 

For Jenelle Kent, the heart behind Pieces to Treasure, creativity has always been stitched into the fabric of her life. “I often think of my journey as a creative thread that’s woven itself through every stage,” she says—and it’s a fitting metaphor. From childhood days spent imagining what bolts of fabric could become, to designing sophisticated collections for Moda, Jenelle’s passion for textiles has remained a constant companion.

Jenelle began her professional life as a primary school teacher in coastal New South Wales, Australia, where she lives in MacMasters Beach, about an hour north of Sydney. But it wasn’t long before quilting captured her imagination. “I discovered patchwork at a local shop and became immediately hooked,” she recalls. The endless color combinations and creative possibilities proved irresistible.

As her family grew, so did her creative ambitions. She began designing children’s patterns, eventually opening her own quilt shop. “That’s when I realized I’d found my perfect job,” she says. That love of teaching never left her—today it lives on in her patterns, tutorials, and videos for quilters worldwide.

Her journey took a dream-come-true turn when she began designing fabric for Moda. “It’s been the most rewarding journey, and one that I’m still constantly learning and growing through.”
