Information about the store and the staff

As an admirer of traditional quilts, Marci was inspired to author books on Not Your Grandmother’s™ Quilts. This series uses the traditional patterns people associate with their grandmother and simplifies the technique. She has invented several tools to help make quilting easier for all. Her Know Before You Sew™ solution cards take common problems quilters encounter, and provide easy-to-understand solutions.

Marci spends much of the year traveling, teaching classes for quilting guilds and trade shows as well as teaching in her workshop, Alicia’s Attic. Enthusiasm and inspiration for quilting can be seen throughout her lectures, workshops, and books. She has been featured in Redbook, on Home and Garden TV's "Simply Quilts", NBC’s “The Jane Pauley Show”, highlighted in "Traditional Quiltworks", and has been published in numerous quilting magazines. Marci has been nominated for The Professional Quilter magazine "Teacher of the Year" award in 2002 and 2005.

Marci, her husband Clint, two boys, their snake, and bearded dragon currently live in Fort Collins, Colorado where they enjoy the outdoors and the beautiful creation of life near the mountains.
