    Cool Are there any celebrities that quilt?

    I was wondering this the other day. I know you see celebrities knitting, painting, and embroidering, but I never hear about any that do quilting for a hobby. Are there any?

    Marie Osmond is the only one that comes to mind -- Martha Stewart has done everything at some time!

    The actress who plays Nina on "The Young and the Restless" is a serious quilter. I saw her on the old "Simply Quilts" show and she had pictures of a sewing studio in her back yard which her husband had made. She and (? can't remember her name, Crystal or Cricket?-- blond and plays a lawyer) are good friends. She was making a Crazy Quilt for her as a wedding present. It had some gorgeous embellishments.

    A couple of years ago the hot trend seemed to be knitting. I'm not sure if quilting will ever be a trend in Hollywood, it requires commitment of time and effort I'm sure few stars are willing and able to make.
