2011 Quilt Legend Eleanor Burns | Partial Seams
(Show 913) Beloved quilter, teacher, author, publisher of over 100 books, longtime PBS television personality, and 2011 TQS Quilting Legend, is the irrepressible Quilt-in-a-Day Lady, Eleanor Burns. She opens her wonderful log home and spacious studio to Alex, Ricky, and The Quilt Show gang. Eleanor shares her quilting history and a generous sampling of quilts and we peek in on students at work on a quick-and-easy quilt using Eleanor's Fabric Frenzy pattern. Along the way, Eleanor demonstrates her technique for sewing partial seams. Eleanor takes Alex and Ricky on a horse-drawn carriage ride through the quaint town of Julian, CA, where they sample a slice of the famous local apple pie. All in all, a "delicious" experience you won't want to miss!
