Beth likes to say that needlework is sewn into the fiber of her being. After learning to embroider at the age of four, she was smitten with all things needle and thread. By age 12, she was sewing her own clothes. Today, Beth has been quilting and teaching for decades. She's written several books on quilting, and been featured on Simply Quilts, Kaye’s Quilting Friends, and The Quilt Show with Ricky Tims and Alex Anderson. Beth also has her own pattern publishing company called Applewood Farm.
