Riassunto

In her first book the irrepressible Robbi, known for her award-winning art quilts and her side-splitting first-person columns in Quilting Arts Magazine, shares her techniques for designing, fusing, and finishing quilts so you, too, can create fiber masterpieces- without an art degree or even knowing how to draw. Her techniques fly in the face of many of the steps of traditional quilt making. The techniques and designs she has chosen are the ones she loves to do and she invites readers to try them, though it may feel like cheating because they are so easy to follow.

Su questo libro

Informazioni sull?autore

Robbi Joy Eklow has been sewing, beading, and playing with fiber since she was a kindergartner getting up early to watch moon launches. For awhile her love of science and math overcame her love of textiles while she earned a degree in engineering from Purdue University. She dyes all of her own fabric for her quilts. Robbi started her first quilt in 1976, during the Great Quilt Revival.

Robbi has written a first-person humor column on her adventures in quilting, Goddess of the Last Minute, for Quilting Arts Magazine since Summer 2002. She teaches internationally and her work has been exhibited in major shows where she occasionally wins ribbons.

She lives in Chicago, IL
