 About
the Author
Nadine Ruggles has been sewing and crafting since
childhood and caught the quilting bug in 1990. She wanted
to make "just one large quilt" for the bed and,
of course, couldn't stop quilting after that. Being mostly
self-taught, she sees each new quilt as a challenge and combines
her special talents for fabric selection, precision piecing,
elegant quilting and unexpected embellishments to create
innovative quilt art pieces.
She enjoys choosing fabrics, finding the perfect fabric for
a certain block or pattern, and putting different colors
and fabrics together to create new effects. Her work is a
collection of many styles; some quilts are decidedly traditional,
while others are more innovative or in the art quilt genre.
Quilts and projects with many different fabrics are the most
interesting and challenging to her.
Nadine lives in Angelbachtal, Germany, with her husband Eric,
who works with the U.S. Army and two beautiful daughters,
Erica and Erin. Patches and Shadow, the family cats, keep
her company in her quilting studio. She teaches classes and
workshops in a variety of quilting and embellishment techniques
for the Army Arts & Crafts programs, as well as for local
quilt guilds and shops. Her quilts have been exhibited across
the United States in quilt shows, galleries and museums
