ANDREA MEEGAN 9/10, Saturday, 10 am to Noon Hello from Andrea Meegan, I am super excited to be coming to guide you in using some fabulous rulers by Creative Grid. I wanted to give you a brief version of my quilting history. Like so many quilter's I started quilting, when I was pregnant with my first child. Well, he is now 32, so I guess I have been quilting 33 years. That was back in the day, when it was hard to even find 100% cotton prints. Boy, have we got it glorious now. Since then, in addition to hoarding all the fabulous cotton prints I possibly can, I have had the privilege to get to design two different quilting lines. It has also been my delight to have won ribbons for several of my quilts, as well as watch patterns that I wrote become best sellers. My favorite thing has always been to help guide quilter's in their journey. Please, come join me as we explore the marvelous possibilities of several new, and several classic Creative Grid Rulers.
