Guest Interview: Meet Amy Friend
This December, Quilt Block Club members were treated to an exclusive interview with Amy Friend! Amy, a former museum curator turned modern quilt designer, has captivated quilters with her paper piecing patterns and creative approach. She’s the author of Intentional Piecing, Improv Paper Piecing, and Petal + Stem, showcasing her unique designs and teaching quilters how to embrace intentional and improv techniques.
Amy is passionate about building community through block swaps and quilt alongs, and her quilts have been featured in shows and museums. When she’s not quilting, you can find her spending time with her family or tending to her garden in Massachusetts.
Quilt Block Club members had the opportunity to connect with Amy during a recorded interview, gaining insight into her creative process and modern quilting journey.
