Felicity Walker

When I first started quilting, I had no idea that I would write books that have helped thousands of people learn to start quilting -- and love it. It's a thrill for me to share the quilting secrets and shortcuts I have learned in nearly 20 years at the sewing machine.

Even after making hundreds of quilts, I still remember how it felt to be a beginner -- how intimidated I felt by the local quilt shop and the experts who worked there, how strange the quilting techniques and terminology sounded to me, and how scared I was of making a mistake.

I learned to quilt the hard way, without much help from anyone, and that's what got me started as an author. I've written my books to help YOU learn to quilt the easy way. I invite you to join me in making something beautiful and getting the most possible fun from your love of fabric.

I am currently working on my fourth quilting how-to book. I also contribute to the quilting blog QuiltersDiary.com. I am always looking for and writing about simpler and faster ways to quilt, and I enjoy sharing what I know with Quilter's Diary readers.
