QFEA Book Tour




This book is the fruit of sweat, blood, and tears.  Over the course of two years, it was a physically demanding task, as well as an emotional journey.  One that no one could ever fully understand until they experience the publishing industry for themselves.  This experience is one that I will be eternally grateful for.  It challenged me in so many different ways, allowed me to grow, and it will continue to test my strength and perseverance in the coming years.

When writing this book, I sincerely strived to make something different.  I wanted the designs to stand out from what we typically see in quilt books.  As a consumer of quilt books myself, I yearned to see designs that were fresh and appealed to a more modern aesthetic.   I tried to fill that void with Quilting from every Angle, and I think I did a good job.  I really hope you love it.





To celebrate the release of Quilting from every Angle, some wonderful friends and associates of mine have come together to share this book with you.   Please stop by to see what they are up to and what they have to say about the book.  There will be a giveaway at each stop, so enter for your chance to win a copy of my book.  I am very excited to share my book with you, and I hope you find great inspiration in it.

  5. So exciting! What an amazing accomplishment! I'm looking forward to getting your book and using it to begin my quilting journey. I've wanted to learn to quilt for such a long time but I really need the time, a different machine (currently have a basic Pfaff and Bernina), I found your blog while researching for a new machine which Im still deciding on. I went for years with my great Pfaff which I got from a manufacturer's rep doing demos at a local store. But after my daughter learned to sew, my eyes were opened to all the great features available now.
