About this title

About the Author

Anja Townrow was born in The Hague, Holland, and grew up in a village in the Dutch Polderland. After studying English language and literature at the University of Leiden, she moved to England in 1974. Since the late 1980s when quilting magazines and books from the United States became more widely available in the United Kingdom, she has been greatly inspired by American quilters. Anja is a self-taught quiltmaker who has won many prizes for her work. She travels extensively, teaching in Britain and Europe. Known for her use of vibrant colors, Anja's ever-expanding range of patterns is produced under the name of Dutch Quilts, and her designs can also be found as regular contributions in various patchwork publications. Anja has three daughters, whose ages range from 8 to 22, so perhaps it's not surprising that after fitting the school run, visits to the gym, and quilting into her day, she frequently forgets to water her plants!
