About the Author

Betty's designs culminate from a background beginning with a fine arts education at Syracuse University, ownership of a yarn shop where she also designed needlepoint canvases, to the buying and selling of antique quilts while she was living in central Ohio. Her inspiration is derived from her past knowledge, her continued enthusiasm, and current research for her quilt pattern business, Betty Alderman Designs.
