Author Suzanne MarshallAbout the Author

Award-winning quilter, master appliqué artist, world traveler—these only begin to describe Suzanne Marshall.

Her quilts have been exhibited in museums both here and abroad and have won numerous major awards from too many prestigious quilt shows to mention separately. All this has been accomplished by a self-taught quilter who traces her development to a library book and a collection of fabric scraps, gathered through many years of making clothing.

Inspired by the designs in the textiles of cultures around the world, her quilts reflect her love of both adventure and appliqué

Born in Joplin, Missouri, Suzanne makes her home in St. Louis with her husband, Garland, where she enjoys visits from her three grown sons and a daughter.
