| Instructor Bio: | My creative aesthetic is designed to inspire - combining my love of quilting and background in garment making I aim to create projects that are made-to-stand-out. My favorite methods of sewing include foundation paper piecing, machine applique, and English paper piecing – detailed fussy cutting and precision work is where I put the love in my details. My creative style is bold, bright, & beautiful with a dash of over-the-top! I am passionate about pushing the boundaries of mixing endless color and loads of pattern in my creations. |
