Pat Sloan — a designer, author, and lecturer with a daily video show — truly is the "Voice of Quilting." She has a deep passion for making quilting fun for herself and everyone around her. Pat loves to hang out with quilters on the internet. If you have had the pleasure of engaging with her content online, be prepared to be inspired to get more done! Sewing since she was a child and quilting for over 30 years, Pat eventually looked to her craft as a business. After a few years of quilting, she started to teach quilt-making to others and then turned her skills to pattern designing. She enjoyed designing and seeing how other quilters made her patterns. In 2000 Pat's designs became so popular that she and her husband Gregg formed a design and publishing company called Pat Sloan & Co. In addition to designing and publishing her work, they spent 20 years traveling around the country, teaching and showing her quilts to quilt guilds and shops. Pat has published her designs in national magazines, written 30 books on quilting, has Aurifil thread collections, is a Babylock Sewing Machine Ambassador, and designs fabric for Benartex. When Pat took her passion to the internet, she built many quilt communities. Join her group on Facebook, the largest quilt community in the world, with nearly 320,000 quilters. Pat and Gregg live in Fairfax County, Virginia. patsloan.com.
