Karen Kay Buckley
Since her first quilt competition, Karen's quilts have won many local and national awards including six Best of Show awards. In the spring of 1992, her first book "From Basics to Binding: A complete Guide to Making Quilts" was published. She has since published three other books: ":Above and Beyond Basics"; "Love to Quilt … Bears, Bears, Bears"' and "Appliqué Basics: Flower Wreaths". In May of 1992 Karen had her first magazine cover quilt and since that time has had eleven more quilts appear on the cover of major quilting magazines. Karen is very passionate about what she does. She loves designing her quilts and shares her tips and tricks with all her students.
Kay's quilt "Arabesque" is on the cover of the 2010 That Patchwork Place Award Winning Quilts calendar! This quilt won first place at the Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival in 2008, Second Place for Innovative Appliqué Large (an IQA Judged Show) in 2008, Best of Show at the Second Annual American Quilters' Society Show in Des Moines, Iowa in November 2009, and Best Machine Quilting at the 2009 Quilt Odyssey.
Karen will be teaching hand and machine invisible appliqué classes here May 19 - 23, 2010. Call for details or watch our website. 403-938-6269.
