Contributor Bio(s): Gardunia, Leila: - Leila Gardunia has been sewing since childhood and has been a quilter for over 12 years. She realized there were quilts she wanted to make but even as a sewing teacher, felt she lacked the skills to make more challenging designs. She set to work correcting this by developing a skill-building primer-for herself first and then for others. This book is a result of her efforts. Leila lives in Huxley, Iowa where she continues to quilt and win awards. |
