The Educator:  Heather Valentine

Say hello to Heather Valentine from The Sewing Loft. A scrap fabric junkie, lover of colorful things, Frenchie “collector” and a serial quilt block maker! It all started with her Grandmother’s featherweight and that magical cookie tin.

After years of working as a technical designer in the garment industry, she switched gears and fell in love with the art of all things Quilty. Her design style blends traditional techniques with modern designs to create playful block patterns that are easy to make.  She considers each block an opportunity to experiment with color and show off your favorite fabrics. When grouped together, the combinations are endless.

In addition to designing quilt patterns, her debut fabric collection with Windham, Color Club, is coming to a store near you in the summer of 2023. The rainbow collection is bound to become a staple in your stash.

Heather is an Annie’s Creative Studio expert, and has served on the board of directors of the International Quilt Association. Her love of design and quilting shines through in every class she teaches. Her main goal is to set you up for success at the machine, no matter your skill level.

 

The Project: In the Works

Heather is busy at work designing a new project for this cruise.  She will be providing the kit for the quilt top, which is included in your pricing.  We can’t wait to see what she comes up with.  In the meantime, please visit her website to see more of her work:  https://thesewingloftblog.com/
