Bill Stearman, Quilt Maker

I rarely allow folks to take my picture.  I'm not sure why, but as a result, there are very few pictures of me out there. Lately, I've had two taken and I love them both. Interestingly, both are of me with the same quilt! The one below was taken by my husband, Larry Tayler    ( larrytayler.com ).   And this one was taken by my Guild friend, Eleanor, at Sewing With Your Friends. Life is good!

 I have finished the samples for the workshop that I'll be teaching, starting this Autumn. Once the block has been mastered, and sample blocks completed, these are the patterns that I will have available. 'It's a Breeze' - a traditional variation  'For Baby and Me' - a transitioning to modern variation 'Nice People, Nice Things' - a modern variation 'It's the Same World, No Matter How You Look At it' - an improv variation (no pattern for this one, just instructions and suggestions)

My quilt, 'I Wish I Had a River' won third place in the Modern Bed and Wall Quilt category at Quilt Canada! Humbled. Grateful. Blessed. Thank you Quilt Canada!
