About the Author

A quilter for two decades, Chris Boersma Smith considers textile art her scared passion. Chris believes creative pursuits can help every woman become the unique work of art she was created to be. She hopes this book will help quilters find new ways to pursue their creative passions with greater joy than ever. Chris is active in quilt and art groups, including Christians in the Visual Arts, the International Association of Creative Arts Professionals, and Studio Art Quilt Associates. She has created over 125 quilts, raning from traditional bed quilts to contemporary fiber art for the wall. Her quilts have won numerous awards and netted thousands of dollars for charity. For ten years, Chris has hosted intimate quilt retreats, and she cherished the deep connections and breakthroughs that happen in that setting. An avid student of theology, spirituality, and scripture, Chris is an alumna of Georgetown University and the Monastery of the Risen Christ School for Charismatic Spiritual Directors. She has served in a broad range of ministries. She's also a member of the Kaizen-Muse Certified Creativity Coaches Coalition, and the Kingdom Training Institute's Convergence Coaches' network.
