About the author

Most people know me as half of the Piece O' Cake Designs team. With my partner, Linda Jenkins, we have written many quilt books. I am also a wife, mother, grandmother, and daughter. I love my family and friends!

Travel is part of my life - for both work and pleasure. I travel and teach quilting nationally and internationally. It's great fun to meet new people and see new places! My husband, Steve, and I enjoy traveling together - hiking when we can.

With every day, I am more aware of the fact that each day is a gift to be embraced. I do my best to do that with a smile and open heart.

Do love the scrappy look of using many fabrics in these traditional designs and especially that they are often directionals. Patterns for applique, reverse applique, paper pieced blocks and classic block designs. Includes a fold out pattern for the applique. Good job, and as usual, above my abilities.
