Description

Eleanor Burns has been an icon in the quilting world for over 40 years. Her first book, A Quilt in a Day – Log Cabin Pattern, was published in 1978, beginning a quilt-making revolution by applying her incredibly rapid method of assembly-line sewing to patchwork. Eleanor gave quiltmakers techniques that compacted months into a day – a “quilt in a day.” Since then, she has authored more than 140 books and patterns, designed fabrics, been inducted into the Quilters Hall of Fame and continues to delight quilters all over the world with her “Quilt in a Day” PBS TV series and other videos which can be viewed on YouTube. Take a stroll down memory lane as Eleanor kicks off the Quilting Bee with “Quilt In a day - The Road to Bisbee,” an evening lecture, photos and book signing on Thursday night, April 13 from 7 to 9 pm that will share much of Eleanor’s Quilt in a Day history and how she made her way to Bisbee. If you have made a quilt using Eleanor's Quilt in a Day techniques or patterns we'd love to display it on the back of a church pew during the lecture! Simply send email to [email protected] and we'll contact you in a twinkling! Proceeds from the lecture & will go towards building a fund for neighborhood improvements in Historic Warren.
