À propos

Jeanne Cook Walsh has been interested in "sewing a fine seam" since childhood. She was born and raised near, and in Shelby, Polk County, Nebraska. Jeanne literally learned to sew at her mother's knee, making doll dresses on a toy sewing machine while her mother made school dresses on a treadle Singer. Jeanne's country school teacher taught the little girls to embroider a tea towel for Christmas gifts for their mothers. She was fascinated by the quilts her Grandma Luella Elliot Cook pieced. These interests and skills led her into quilt classes at Marian Fosler's Fabric Fair in the 1970's in Seward, Nebraska. She has been quilting ever since, making quilts for her family, hand quilting for clients and storing baby quilts and graduation quilts away for great grandchildren as of yet unborn! Jeanne has two children, seven grandchildren, and 12 great grandchildren and lives in Seward, Nebraska.
