| Instructor Bio: | A seamstress from her youth, Debby transitioned into quilting while expecting her first child. Thirty years and thousands of quilts later, she is an award-winning quilter who has published quilts, patterns, articles and columns in major quilting magazines, and authored 2 books. She teaches at national and international quilting shows, has filmed HQ Sweet Sixteen? instructional DVDs and has taught multiple machine quilting classes on Craftsy.

She currently quilts using the HQ Sweet Sixteen?, the HQ Simply Sixteen?, the HQ Fusion? with Pro-Stitcher? and the entire family of HQ Stitch? machines. Debby is obsessed with the precision of ruler quilting on domestic, sit-down and longarm machines and spices up those lines with whimsical free-motion quilting that appeals to quilters of all skill levels. When not traveling to spread her fun brand of quilting, Debby creates in her studio in New York?s beautiful Hudson Valley. Debby and her husband enjoy plotting how best to spoil their grandchildren. |
