Meet the Maker

Hi, I’m Chelsea...the maker and designer behind 25th and Mag.

A modern textile studio dedicated to heirloom quilts, patterns, and the art of intentional making.

The Story

25th & Mag is a Southern California textile studio born from a dual heritage. My creative journey is rooted in the lessons of two women: one grandmother who taught me how to use a sewing machine, and another who was a lifelong artist, teaching me how to see the world through color and composition.

Their influence lives in every stitch I take: a marriage of technical precision and artistic expression. I believe that a quilt is more than a layer of warmth; it is a canvas where traditional heritage meets a modern aesthetic.

The Studio

In 2020, I returned to something new, yet familiar, as a way to find grounding in a changing world. What began as a personal creative outlet quickly evolved into a dedicated studio practice. I found myself drawn to the geometric complexity of quilt design and the unique way fabric can transform a space.

Today, 25th & Mag is focused on creating "modern heirlooms." I design and make every piece from my studio in Southern California, blending time-honored techniques with a clean, contemporary vision that fits into the modern home.

The Philosophy

In a world of mass production, I choose the slow path. Every quilt, pattern, and home good is created with a focus on high-quality materials and thoughtful construction.

I believe the objects we live with should carry meaning. Whether it’s a quilt designed to be passed down through generations or a pattern meant to inspire your own creative journey, each project is approached with the same attention to detail and a deep respect for the craft.

The Invitation

I invite you to explore the different ways we can bring the warmth of intentional craft into your home and your own creative journey.

  • Shop: Browse a curated collection of ready-made quilts, small-batch textile home goods, and modern quilt patterns designed for makers of all levels.
  • Custom Commissions: I collaborate with clients to create bespoke quilts that tell a story by incorporating specific color palettes, cherished materials, or unique designs tailored to your space.
  • Longarm Quilting Services: For my fellow makers, I offer professional longarm quilting to help you turn your finished quilt tops into completed works of art.

Made slowly, to be lived with, and kept.
