Author Florence RiesenFrom the Author

After graduating with a BS degree in zoology from Seattle Pacific University, I worked in medical laboratories and taught high school for a number of years.

From 1973 to 1981, my husband and I lived in Edinburgh, Scotland, while he studied at the University of Edinburgh. while there our son, Peter, was born, and for the next eighteen years I stayed at home and enjoyed being a mother. In Edinburgh I regularly participated in Embroiderers Guild meetings, but on returning to the United States I found there was very little interest in embroidery. Everyone was quilting.

Even though I have sewn for as long as I can remember, I didn't take my first quilting class until about 1983. It was with Eleanor Burns on the Log Cabin block and I have never looked back. I have probably made at least seventy quilts and recently began entering quilts in shows.

I have taught quilting to friends in my home but, because of work schedule and responsibilities, I have never taught formal classes. My husband was headmaster of a small private Christian high school in Los Angeles where I also worked. We endeavored to take students from low income families and prepare them for university. We are now both retired and I am enjoying time for quilting. Our son, Peter, is with the US Department of the Treasury in Washington, D.C.
