Cindy Brick “Amazing Crazies”
www.cindybrick.com

Crazy quilts may have been a favorite of the Victorians, but they’re every bit as popular today! Learn about their origins and favorite 19th century techniques and design choices, as well as Crazies today. We will be taking a hands-on look at Crazy quilts, both antique & modern, and related styles.

Cindy began quilting in 1984, when she joined a group of University of Michigan wives who worked on each others' quilts. She began teaching and writing about quilts soon after, and joined the staff of Quilter's Newsletter in 1992. She took turns editing and writing various articles, and was also the Book Review editor. In 1996, Cindy began her own company, BRICKWORKS, and started traveling across the country, teaching and judging for guilds and various conferences. She began appraising textiles in 1997, and was certified by the American Quilter's Society in 1999. She also has experience appraising collections, sewing room contents, and has expanded in paper ephemera, ceramics, glass and jewelry. In between obligations, she lives with her family, including two Weimaraners, a demented cat, and a garden that refuses to stay weeded, in the Front Range community of Castle Rock. Contact her at cindybrick@comcast.net, or call toll-free 1-888-48-BRICK. Cindy Brick’s workshop on March 28 is Color, Fabric & Embellishment for Crazies.
