My three...

Caryl Breyer Fallert, for her amazing use of colour and line.

Karen Kay Buckley, for her incredible appliqué and design skills.

Barbara Brackman, for collecting so much of the heritage of quilting and preserving it for future generations.

And then there are all the dozens of others who have brightened my path and helped me along the way -- three is not enough!

I have been so fortunate in being able to take classes from many of my quilting heroes over the years and have been immeasurably enriched by those experiences.
