About NewQuilters.com

I am a self-taught quilter who learned to quilt the hard way, without much help. Over nearly two decades as a quilter, I’ve made just about every mistake it’s possible to make.

I’ve also made lots of quilts and learned many quick and easy quilting techniques. That’s what makes me so excited to help you learn how to quilt. Now you can benefit from my hard-won experience, as I share all the tips, tricks, and shortcuts I’ve picked up in my miles at the sewing machine.
