Famous Quilting Teachers

| Charlotte Angotti |
 |
 |
While shopping with her mother in 1978, Charlotte wandered into a quilt shop and everything changed from there. Educated in fine arts, speech and drama, she brings a variety of talents to class in a most humorous way. Teaching quilt making since 1979, she also owned her own quilt shop from 1981-1999. Perhaps a storyteller as much as a quilter, and best known for her kits and the ease of her methods, Charlotte will keep you laughing while teaching you the magic of quilt making. Known for her use of color, her classes are light and full of humor but informative as well.

"Whig-Harrison Rose" © by Linda J. Carlson. Shown here with permission of the artist. |
Linda Carlson's educational background includes two Bachelor degrees; Elementary Education and K-12 Music Education from the University of Missouri at Columbia. While teaching Second Grade, she became certified by the Library of Congress to transcribe Braille; and there resides her transcription of Shel Silverstein's A LIGHT IN THE ATTIC. These degrees and experiences prepared her for a career in quilting in that she possesses a good sense of humor, is patient, flexible yet guiding, and allows her students to follow the creative beat of their own drummer.
Since the early 1980's, Linda has taught all areas of quilting, specializing in applique and the history of and techniques in making the large four-block quilt in the latter part of the decade. Teaching throughout the United States for guilds, retreats, symposiums and large quilt shows such as the American Quilter's Society Show in Paducah, KY, Quilt Odyssey 2001 in Gettysburg, PA and the International Quilt Festival in Houston, TX has kept her quite busy.
Also, for the past 10 years she has judged quilt shows, Missouri fairs and contests for Wal Mart. She believes, "Judging quilt shows is one of the very best techniques I bring back to my students in that I can help them improve all of their quiltmaking techniques in creating a visually pleasing and skillfully executed quilt." Linda is currently working towards judging certification and welcomes opportunities to teach workshops and judge quilt shows.
The American Quilter's Society published her first two books in 1994 and 1997 respectively: Roots, Feathers & Blooms: Four-Block Quilts, Their History & Patterns, and Four-Blocks Continued... . Her third book, Quilting to Soothe the Soul: Create Memories for Today, Tomorrow & Forever is published by Krause Publications. A combination of her first two books will be published in 2003 by the American Quilter's Society.
In 1995, Carlson presented a research paper, "The Roots of the Large Four Block Quilt" for the symposium "What's American About American Quilts?" at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC sponsored by the American Quilt Defense Fund and the Smithsonian Institute. Later in 1996, she received the G. Andy Runge Ambassador Award in recognition of her representation of Mexico, MO, during her many teaching excursions. Since then, about thirty of Linda's four-block quilt collection were exhibited at the MAQS Museum in Paducah, Kentucky. She has written articles for several national magazines including Lady's Patchwork Circle, Quilter's Newsletter, American Quilter, Quilting International, Fabric Showcase Special, (supplement to Traditional Quiltworks and Quilting Today), and Quilting Today. Some of Linda's quilts both new and antique have been featured in books such as A Quilted Christmas edited by Bonnie Browning at AQS, Quilts A Living Tradition by Robert Shaw and Marie Salazar's book from Michael Friedman Publishing Group, Inc. Recently, Carlson's articles on fabric choices and quilts and the grieving process have appeared in "Quilting Today's" 1999 Fabric Special and the 2001 Spring issue of the American Quilter's Society Magazine respectively. Issue #86 of "Quilting Today" featured her article on quilt corner treatments. In March 2001, Linda was a guest artist at the Elly Sienkiewicz Applique Academy in Williamsburg, VA.
Carlson's work has also been featured in such exhibitions as: United We Stand, Paducah, KY, 2002 American Quilter's Society Show, quilt "What So Proudly We Hailed," currently on a 2 to 3 year loan; Remember When..., Paducah, KY, 1997 American Quilter's Society Show invitational and touring exhibit, quilt "Remember When We Built Our Dream Home Back In 1996?"; and, Museum of American Quilter's Society, Paducah, KY, 1997, "Grand and Glorious: Four Block Quilts from the Collection of Linda Carlson.
Linda's workshops and lectures offer 27 classes featuring mostly hand applique and/or pieced 4-block quilt projects from large applique pieces to intricate Scherenschnitte designs with some machine projects, too; commemorative/memorial quilts, designing specific features for quilts such as feather borders, center and corner treatments, perfecting applique and 3-D techniques and choosing background and quilting motifs. Linda's philosophy is, "As I continue to teach around the country, I am always inspired by my students' undiscovered talents. I've learned so much from them and hope I have opened their eyes to their own creativity."

I was born and raised in Oklahoma City. My husband, Steve, and I met at the University of Oklahoma. We married in 1978, at the end of our senior year at OU when we each completed our degrees, mine in interior design and his in zoology. He went on to obtain a Ph.D. in Zoology at Arizona State University. His career has taken us to Tempe, AZ, Tulsa, OK, and most recently to Sherman, TX. Luckily, I can make quilts anywhere!
Our boys, Chris, now 22, and Jeff, 19, were born while Steve was in graduate school. I discovered quilting when Jeff was 1 and the boys needed comforters for their bunk beds. I have not put my needle down since!
I met Linda Jenkins, my partner in Piece O’ Cake Designs, not long after I started quilting at a meeting of the Green Country Quilters’ Guild in Tulsa. We’ve been friends ever since. We started Piece O' Cake in 1994. I could not ask for a better partner.
Making quilts is interesting, fulfilling, and challenging. Running the business with Linda is exhilarating. This is not what I thought I would be doing with my life when I graduated from college. This is so much better!
The newest news in our family is that Chris married Lorna Warren in 2001. They presented us with our first grandchild, Elanor Cecelia, November 6, 2002! Being a "Nana" is truly wonderful. Jeff is in college in Pennsylvania. Steve and I are home alone for the first time in many years and we are enjoying it!

I am originally from Tulsa, Oklahoma. I met my husband, Paul, in Tulsa and we have been married for over 40 years! We recently moved back to Tulsa after living in Pagosa Springs, CO for seven years. Paul is now retired and spends his time playing golf, riding his motorcycle and lending a helping hand at Piece O’ Cake Designs whenever we need him. I retired from more than 20 years as a hair stylist and salon owner. I am now on my second career as a quilt designer and loving every minute of it.
Becky Goldsmith and I formed Piece O’ Cake Designs, Inc. in 1994. We met at our local quilt guild in Tulsa four years earlier. Over the years, we have become good friends and partners sharing our love of appliqué and quilting.
Quilting began as a hobby for me in 1984. My hobby has now turned into a full-time and very fulfilling career! I wish I had started quilting sooner. I love all aspects of quilting, but I fell in love with needle turn appliqué.
We have been blessed with the rapid growth of Piece O’ Cake Designs, Inc. Becky and I both travel and teach nationwide. We publish our books and patterns with C&T Publishing. We also design fabric for P&B Textiles. We currently have designed seven collections of fabric. Frostings, Sunday in the Park, Seasonings, Plaids, Colonial Classics plaids and stripes. Our newest collection for 2005 is Scrap Bag Treasures in prints, plaids, and stripes.

" Kaleidoscopic XXVIII: How to Piece a Spiral" © by Paula Nadelstern. Shown here with permission of the artist. |
Kaleidoscope.— the very word promises surprise and magic, change and chance. Exploding with visual excitement, a kaleidoscopic design organizes an abundance of light and color, form and motion into a complex and coherent image. My goal is to harmoniously integrate the idea of a kaleidoscope with the techniques and materials of quiltmaking. I try to free myself from a conventional sense of fabric orderliness, seeking a random quality in order to imitate the succession of chance interlinkings and endless possibilities synonymous with kaleidoscopes.
I make quilts on the same block in the Bronx where I grew up. Being a New Yorker wrapped up in the fabric of city life creates an inherent paradox contrasting the traditional image of quiltmaking as part of a simple, make-do, rural way of life with my own complex urban-shaped space.
Historians have suggested that the block-style method of quiltmaking evolved in response to the cramped quarters of early American life. My family's living arrangement in an urban environment created similar considerations which, unwittingly, I resolved in much the same way. My workspace in our two bedroom apartment is the forty-inch round kitchen table. A long distance view, alternate space, or not making quilts are not options. I believe this reality merged with my personality and passion for fabric in shaping the direction of my kaleidoscopic piecework, causing me to rely on intricate detail and inherent symmetry, and to invent a shape that makes the most of limited space. My block style method is based on a pie-slice section.
Until I met quilts, I thought I was creative but not talented. To find something you love to do is a gift. To achieve recognition for it is a miracle. When I am overwhelmed by a longing for functional space, complete with a door I can close, I try to remember this.
My quilts have been featured internationally in exhibits, including a solo exhibit mounted at The Museum of the American Quilters Society, on television shows and online websites, and in books and magazines. Recently, one quilt was included in the "Twentieth Century's 100 Best American Quilts" exhibit. I travel extensively teaching the kaleidoscopic quiltmaking techniques explored in my books, Kaleidoscopes & Quilts and Snowflakes & Quilts and design textile prints exclusively for Benartex, Inc.
Also, I am delighted to announce, I was recently awarded a 2001 NY Foundation for the Arts Fellowship. I was also a recipient of this fellowship in 1995 and one from The Bronx Council on the Arts in 1996.

"Reversible Quilt © by Sharon Pederson. Shown with permission of the artist. |
I have been quilting since 1986 and teaching since 1987. That's right, I started teaching a year after I made my first quilt. I live in the beautiful Comox Valley on Vancouver Island and in 1986 there were no quilt teachers here. After I had made half a dozen quilts I became the local 'expert' and reluctantly agreed to teach my first class. I was terrified. But, my students were so enthusiastic and wanted more, so I added another class to the beginner class I'd taught, and it has just kept on growing.
I have taught from coast to coast in Canada and the United States and in January 2003 I’ll be able to add England to my list of places taught. I am the author of Reversible Quilts: Two At A Time (Martingale & Company).
I enjoy teaching – no, I love teaching – and I feel very strongly that students learn more in a pleasant atmosphere. My classes are full of fun – and information – but the emphasis is on making what we do enjoyable. After all, it is supposed to be fun.

I have always felt privileged to have been born into a talented and loving, generous European family who always put their family first when it came to teaching freedom of artistic expression. As a first generation, I have inherited the good fortune of generations of artists, silversmiths, sculptors, poets, weavers, stained-glass artisans and writers, leading to a never-ending curiosity of different cultures. This has fueled my passion for travel, teaching, and sharing my experiences with people around the world. I have taught in the USA, Holland, Germany, twice in Turkey, twice in Italy and in The United Kingdom. I believe language is never a barrier in the translation of quilts!
I teach glue-stick appliqué—the easy way, and Bended Bias Applique.

Her Three-Dimensional Patchwork was featured in the Nov/Dec '97 Quiltmaker and the Dec. '97 Quilter's Newsletter Magazine.
Jackie offers a range of workshops and lectures for shops and guilds including classes on Tessellations, Three Dimensional Patchwork, and Wright's art glass interpreted in quilts. In her lecture about F. L. Wright, she literally "puts him on." Additionally, there are workshops designed specifically to sharpen machine-piecing skills. Lately, she has been interpreting the pottery designs of the Ancient Puebloans in quilts.
