“I just want everyone to have as much fun with quilting as I have.”
Karen has been a quilter for nearly half a century, and a teacher and pattern designer for 20 years.
Karen’s goal as a designer and teacher? “I just want everyone to have as much fun ‘ with quilting as I have! Because, if it isn’t fun, what’s the point?”
Karen retired in 2013 from a career as a librarian, and is now able to pursue her (formerly part time) passions full time. Besides quilting, she enjoys spinning, weaving, knitting, embroidery, and just about any fiber art thing she can get her hands on. She lives in southwest Iowa in the U.S., in a home that can house her fiber passions. (She has thought about a tiny home, but hasn’t yet found one that can hold her sewing machines, longarm quilting machine, looms, and spinning wheels.)
She’s on Team Dog and Team Tea, and she loves all things chocolate. Oh, and popcorn. Can’t forget popcorn!
