How to SEW ART: ...the easy way! Master The 9 Secrets For Transforming Ordinary Fabric Into Fine Art & Profit (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781887467018)

I began sewing at four years old. I made my own clothing in jr. high and high school. I went on to fashion college (The Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising). I studied fashion design, color theory and pattern making then graduated in 1985. My 18 year fashion career included positions as a fashion designer, production patternmaker and a first patternmaker. I remember watching "Quilt In A Day" with Eleanor Burns on PBS but never tried to make one until I was at home after my daughter was born (fall of 2000). I began to read books about quilting. I made my first quilt as a gift for my mother in November of 2000. I taught myself how to quilt by reading books, and watching the HGTV series, "Simply Quilts". After making that first quilt, I wanted to design my own quilts. A few weeks later, I woke up with the beginnings of the ideas you learned in this book. I always knew that I would be an artist! I am also available to teach you how to be an artist to! Please invite me to lecture and teach workshops for your group/guild.
