Joel and Bobbie, are quilt makers, manufacture, educators, strive to keep things simple quick and fun. Bobbie was the inspiration for Quilters Treasure whose goal is to give quilters an artist pallet. Bobbie found nothing available to make a stained glass quilt. Joel created fabric which has inspired her and many others to expand their creativity. They have taught in 39 states including Hawaii, conducts workshops, seminars and lectures at retreats, quilt shows, guilds and shops. They sponsor a mentor program for new designers and yearly “Quilters Treasure Challenge”. Bobbie’s physical and medical limitations meant she had to simplifying techniques. What was a necessary modification for one made quilting easier and less stressful for all. They now brings these same talents into the quilting world modify popular traditional quilting methods, easy to perform. Traveling in their motor home they are living the dream of seeing the USA and meeting quilters from all over the world. Their constant exposure to about 35 Quilt Shows each year helps them gain insight into the traditional and innovative trends and keeps their classes and products on the cutting edge of quilting.

Happy New Year

January 9, 2011

Welcome to the New Quilters Treasure Blog. I hope you will help me to make this an interesting and educational site. We are changing our format so please email any suggestions or comments to Joe@QuiltersTreasure.com.

We have just come from our visit with our friends Al and Emma in the Florida Keys. Emma and Bobbie spent the time doing what they love, sewing. Al and Joel went fishing and Joel caught a sail fish. Unfortunately he had to release the fish but it put up a good fight.

We are in Mississippi and on our way to Oklahoma City, OK. We hope you can come by and say Hi.

Here is looking forward to a great 2011.

Bobbie & Joel
