Author, teacher and designer, Mary ellen hopkins, from Pacific Palisades, CA, considers herself a traditionalist. Her "It's okay if you Sit on My Quilt" book has revolutionized the world of patchwork.

The most simple "kindergarten" blocks make the best quilts. She will show you how to look at the pieced block in a different way.Mary Ellen manipulates, elongates and even aggravates a basic block until it becomes a marvel of pieced work.

After a day at Mary Ellen's verbal workshop and trunk show you will run - not walk - to your fabric stash and sewing machine.
