Pattie is an embroiderer who started with her baby sitting money, a Girl Scout book on embroidery and a crafty mom who helped her learn the stitches. After 30 some years as a professional embroiderer, she added quilting to her skills and travels around the US teaching both and lecturing about quilt history. Based in San Francisco, the home of modern and art quilters, she is one of the very few quilters that hand piece, hand quilt, and hand finish her quilts in the traditional way of our mothers and grandmothers. She is dedicated to reviving forgotten handwork techniques, such as crayon tint embroidery, in the embroidery and quilting community and yes, she makes all her quilts entirely by hand.
