Cinzia White has been quilting for more than 30 years. Twist & Turn Quilts is her third book following her hexagon sampler, The Storyteller’s Sampler Quilt (from C&T Publishing), and her Dazzling New York Beauty Sampler Quilt (from C&T Publishing). She has also published numerous patterns in Australian and American patchwork magazines and has taught throughout Australia. Cinzia enjoys designing traditional quilts based on geometric designs, and with perseverance and a desire to explore new directions, she has created many award-winning quilts. Cinzia loves working with color and often with no prearranged plan. She has a tendency to incorporate points and curves into her intricate patterns that alternate between two distinct styles: one scrappy and haphazard, the other involving intricate interlocking patterns. Trails, the first quilt in this series, resulted from a desire to explore something new with Flying Geese. The original quilt was designed for and made by hand piecing and quilting. When friends requested a smaller size that could be constructed using machine techniques, Cinzia slightly modified the templates and pattern, resulting in the many quilts presented here. Cinzia lives in Gerringong, NSW, Australia, and can be found on the Facebook page @mycinziawhitedesigns.
