Erika combines fiber art, memoir, and nature exploration to tell stories through quilts, fiber, and textiles. Erika deliberately combines these crafts with nature and science themes to explore connections between people and the natural world around us. She uses traditional techniques and materials but embraces improvisation and experimentation.
Zambello’s work has been featured in Parade Magazine, the New York Times, Piecework, Spin Off, Interweave, National Parks Magazine, and more. Her pieces have been exhibited in the Tallahassee City Hall gallery, the Tallahassee airport, the Gadsden Art Center and Museum, the Dairy Barn Arts Center, Thomasville Center for the Arts, 621 Gallery, and the Leon County Library System. She loves writing about art and craft for Piecework, Spin Off, Farm & Fiber, and Cast On magazines.

My Side of the Story
On View | April 7 – Aug 2, 2026
Opening Reception + Artist Talk | Friday, May 1 | 5:30 – 7:30pm
My Side of the Story highlights the rich Southern tradition of narrative quilting while supporting artists from across the South by providing a platform to showcase their talents. Narrative quilting uses fabric and stitching to convey messages or tell stories. Historically, it began as a way to record history and communicate important information within communities.
In this exhibition, 31 artists created 30 custom 4×4 narrative quilts depicting People, Places, and Things connected to Thomasville. Each quilt offers a unique perspective, reflecting personal interpretations of the community’s heritage and culture, while artists compete for awards celebrating creativity, craftsmanship, and storytelling.
