    I did a workshop recently with Susan Crenshaw. She is a wonderful teacher and talented appliquer.

    I love Carol Armstrong, I own all her books and use lots of her patterns in quilts, pillows, tablecloth etc.

    My favourite artist is Robyn Ginn she is Australian and her patterns are beautiful mainly Applique but she has just pages of appliques and you can follow her pattern or use the designs to make something original.When I bought some of her patterns I actually dealt with her and she is a wonderful person

    I totally and absolutely agree to this! Bonnie is the best around in my opinion! :thumbup:

    I like Terry Atkinson from here in MN. I am also a big fan of Carrie Nelson of Miss Rosie's Quilt Co. I like a lot of the more modern designers, such as Aardvark Quilts. For applique' you can't get any cuter than Brandywine Design, also from MN. And there is Sandy Gervais of Pieces of My Heart who is very good, too.

    my favorites are first Eleanor Burns she got me started with quilting and I love to teach her patterns. then comes Bonnie Hunter and Edyta Sitar just had her at our guild she is wonderful and her quilts are wonderful want to make them all. Edyta is so much fun and so nice so uses scraps too and big on exchanges.
    also favorite for PP is Carol Doak the queen of paper piecing before I took a class from her didn't care that much for PP but now I love it..

    Eleanor Burns is my favorite. Her designs are beautiful and the patterns made the job faster, easier and more accurate. Tape all her shows so I don't miss anything.
