Ever wonder what it might be like to be quilter and to quilt in a country with no quilting tradition?
Angie Padilla is a quilt designer and teacher living in Quito, Ecuador. She designs and creates whimsical, creative and fun to sew quilt patterns (if you are an applique lover or EQ user I am sure you already know her).
She is doing a series of post on her blog about the needs and challenges that quilters in different countries experience.
I shared my story here. And here is Angie’s.
There is a lot we can learn from each other and I am anxious to find out other stories. If you are interested, too, follow Angie’s blog for the next weeks.
If you are an “international quilter,” too, and would like to share your story, please let us know. Email Angie at ajpadilla dot com!

Parca e mai bine "international quilter" decat "lonely quilter", nu?…Dar nu-i nicio problema sa fii simultan ambele, atata timp cat cele doua se impaca perfect!…
Multa inspiratie,sanatate si prieteni buni (indiferent daca sunt din lumea quiltului sau nu…), iti doresc!
