About the Teacher
Kathy Trupiano learned to sew at an early age but her passion for sewing came later in life. Her mother taught her to be a “functional sewist”, understanding basic sewing concepts and how to read a pattern. As Kathy got older she was introduced to quilting and immediately was hooked. Quilting is like a puzzle and there is nothing more satisfying than fitting all those pieces together. As Kathy’s quilting journey progressed, she discovered that one does not have to follow the rules. Being able to use her imagination inspired her to create something unique. She found that she liked sharing her successes and failures, Kathy started her own business of commission quilting and long arming. She began teaching all age levels the fundamentals but along the way encouraged them to go outside the box. There is excitement in pushing the boundaries to discover your own creative spirit.
