COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
TEACHING AND VOLUNTEERING
One of my favorite ways to share my love of quilts and stitching is to teach others.
My teaching philosophy encourages participants to experiment and improvise, and to embrace imperfections.
Coming from a tradition of frontier quilters in the American mountain west, I believe in using what we already have, celebrating our capacity to solve problems creatively and collaboratively.

Group Quilt-making workshops
Historically, quilts were made by communities. Collaboration, acceptance, and freedom of expression guide our group ethos.
The students in my Amsterdam workshops brought fabrics from home to up-cycle into modern lap quilts.
