I got to take a class with her, Trip Around the World, and she was just the same in person as she is when you see her on video. She was so friendly and outgoing and it was really fun cause she also took time to share some of her personal side, talking about her sons. The son we don't see is one of the largest skateboard manufacturers in the country, that one got her some 'street cred' with my son. She said that he was once interviewed about his business and they brought up that his mom was also an entrepreneur and asked if she had taught him a lot. He said he learned a lot just by watching her. She was a wonderful teacher and gave everyone plenty of individual attention.

I have been fortunate enough to take a couple of classes from her at the Houston Quilt Festival! She is as much fun, helpful, encouraging, and delightful as you could possibly want. She is the one who inspired me to start quilting. I love her!

first I ever heard of her was when she suddenly put a 'boa' around my neck at a show.....she had a great booth there and so interesting......a month and 2 days ago I was in San Marcos to visit relatives and stopped by Quilt-In-A-Day ...there was a fabric sale going on in the werehouse, after all discounts were taken the fabric came to $3.00 a yard. Her shop is actually one of the stops in the Southern California Quilt Run which ends at 5p.m. today. There are thirtysomething shops in the run and it is T, F, S, Sunday two weekends in a row.

I guess Patty her sister is as close as I will get. Our quilt guild in Warrensburg hosted Patty last September and will again this year. She talks about E all during the event and demo's E's latest. Cannot wait for September 5th this year. If you are in the Warrensburg MO area, come enjoy Patty with us.

She is just great. I took a class from her this year at Paducah great teacher and very intertaining. Also got to meet Kiley her granddaughter she visited us in class. Also saw her show in the tent, and got her to sign her new book. I look forward to seeing her every year at Paducah. She is the one that got me started in quilting too with her log cabin book.

A girl friend and I went to her show in Green Bay Wi. many years ago, and as I recall we laughed all night at her stories.
We learned a lot, and bought some of the patterns and books that were sold after the show.
