In celebration of spring, Lois shares her flower quilts from her own collection and stories from the past 25 years, as well as some tips and lessons she's learned for making flower and nature-themed quilts.
Lois has been stitching since childhood. Although her work has always involved fabric and design, she did not become a quilter until 1983. She has studied under several nationally and internationally known quilt instructors, the most influential of whom has been Ruth McDowell. The subjects of her most recent works are scenes from nature.
Lois is a member of the Lincoln Quilters Guild, Nebraska State Quilt Guild, Harmonics, a textile art group, and the Nebraska Quilt Documentation Project. She's also a volunteer at the IQM, and is a past president of the Friends of the IQM.
