Daphne Greig

I began sewing as a young girl, making outfits for my dolls, sewed my own and my children's clothes for years and made my first quilt in 1980. I began teaching quilting classes at local quilt shops in 1990. I have extensive teaching and presentation experience including lectures to over 300 attendees.

I have co-authored four quilting books, designed over 100 published patterns, regularly write articles for quilting magazines and teach internationally and online at Quilt University.com. My work has been exhibited in Canada and the United States.

My goal as a teacher is to encourage students to try new techniques, to expand their skills and, most importantly, to have fun and enjoy the creative process. I consider myself a 'student' of fibre arts and work at developing my own skills by attending workshops and participating in associations that further the art of quilting.
