Back Cover Information

Transform vintage linens into charming small quilts!

  • Yesterday's treasures become future heirlooms as antique embroidered and embellished pillowcases, dresser scarves and tablecloths inspire today's machine quilters.
  • 20 exquisite examples are quilted to enhance lace-edged, crocheted, cross-stitched and embroidered linens from the past.
  • 100 quilting patterns are arranged by category—centerpieces, fans, medallions and borders—and are shown in various popular sizes.
  • Ready-for marking full-size stencils from Quilting Creations International are available for most of the patterns and are identified by item number.

About the Author

Cindy fell in love with quilts while living in the Blue Ridge Mountains region back in the early 1970s. Quilting has been an obsession ever since. Passing on her love of design and both hand and machine quilting through teaching is a "dream come true" for her.

She started machine quilting in 1996 when she decided she could not possibly hand quilt all the tops she had pieced. With vintage linens topping every dresser and table top in the house, she tried machine quilting one to see what it would look like and the rest is history! Every piece took on a new life and became a unique heirloom.

Having left a full-time job in the medical field, Cindy teaches and speaks nationally for Superior Threads, and is a popular guild speaker. She lectures on threads and thread selection as well as on her wholecloth linen quilting techniques. She has designed stencils for Quilting Creations International, created wholecloth designs for Gold Threads and has had her work featured in Quilter's Newsletter Magazine

Cindy resides in Chico, California with her husband, Kent and their two dogs. She has married daughters, Jenny and Emily, granddaughter, Chloe, and another on the way!
