Pat
Yamin
With over 30 years of quilting experience, Pat has amassed a large
collection of antique quilt tops and blocks. Her collections are
frequently sought after for trunk shows and have been included for
exhibition at major shows across the country.
Her debut collection for Marcus, called COME QUILT WITH
ME, features great prints with a vintage 1940's influence
that are perfect for scrappy quilt design, one of Pat's popular
signature looks. The fabrics are also perfectly suited to her
latest book, Quilt Savvy: One-Patch Scrap Quilts
(AQS, 2007).
Pat's background led her to start her company, Come Quilt With
Me, in 1981. It evolved from a mail-order company to become a
major manufacturing concern. Her antique quilts serve as design
inspiration for the acrylic templates her company manufactures.
Pat is also the inventor of the Brooklyn Revolver™, an
assortment of rotary-cutting turntables popular with quilters the
world over. Pat has appeared on numerous television programs, most
recently the American Quilter on Lifetime TV. She has also been a
frequent guest on the Martha Stewart Living radio show.
Based in Brooklyn, New York, she travels extensively to
national quilting events and is frequently invited to teach,
lecture, and judge. Her booth is always packed with customers
looking for the newest gadget Pat has either invented or found to
enhance their quilting experience. Visit Pat on line at www.comequiltwithme.com |
