 Kristin Steiner

“The treasure of my unfolding” is the theme of this little vertical fabric book. Learn Kristin's recipe for constructing stable page foundations. Collage techniques using paper, metal and transparencies are demonstrated and favorite adhesives are explained. Stitching methods for combining  pages and attaching pockets are explored.

Her passion for self-expression led her to the quilt world where she has created, designed, taught and written about quilts for 30 years. In her books, A Southern Album and most recently, At Piece with Time; a Woman's Journey Stitched in Cloth, Kristin encourages other women to celebrate their unique story by documenting it in cloth. For the last 5 years, Kristin has been absorbed in the "altered" world. She finds visual journaling exactly what she's been looking for allow her to use her beloved fabric in both book and journal formats. She adores teaching anything to do with the creative process. Her most earnest wish is that we each uncover the genuine creative genius residing deep within, then give it life through our work.  www.kristinsteiner.com
