Andi
Perejda is an award winning quilt maker, teacher and
NQA certified Quilt Judge. A member of Fibervision a group of
California artists who promote artistic creation and exploration
in fiber art, she has been featured on Simply Quilts (HGTV) with
her innovative quilt design “Circle of Illusion” pictured
below.
She is well known for her hand quilting and hand appliqué
however her interests are not limited to these. She says that
quilt making is a fascination, and insuppressible urge, perhaps
an obsession. One of the things she loves about making quilts
is sharing them with others and realizing that she communicated
something that caused them to pause for a moment and consider.
Take a look at her website so you may see the list of all of her
accomplishments and view some of her wonderful quilts. www.andiperejda.com
and also take a look at Fibervision website to review her work
and the work of other talented California artists. www.fibervision.wordpress.com
Andi
