“Anyone who works on a quilt, who devotes her time, energy, creativity, and passion to that art, learns to value the work of her hands. And as any quilter will tell you, a quilter’s quilting friends are some of the dearest, most generous, and most supportive people she knows.” ~ Jennifer Chiaverini
This website is dedicated to quilters everywhere. Here’s one of our own.
A desire to honor her heritage and the family quilters who came before her, led our featured quilter to learn how to create quilts.
She made her first quilt in 2009 and says, “Then I was hooked, especially on the fabrics!” She says she feels her fabric stash is lacking in solid colors, but admits her favorite guilty pleasure is buying fabric and quilts.
She wasn’t able to devote much time to quilting until three or four years ago, but is inspired by other people’s quilts and enjoys the friends she has made through the quilt guild. She is definitely an asset to our guild.
Although she is hesitant to tackle the Cathedral Window block, when she does it will be with a reminder that quilting is a beautiful way to keep memories alive.
Asked about a final thought, she says, “I LOVE QUILTS!!!”
