Introducing Sandy Klop. I began quilting in 1979. Soon I was
making pattern samples for a local quilt store. From
there I moved to doing machine quilting for the store
on my Bernina. I’m now on my second commercial
quilting machine and I quilt full-time in my studio
at home.
Since 1990 I have worked in a local quilt store, taught
classes and have had a drop-in sewing class for people
to work on their quilt projects. I have machine quilted
thousands of quilts and made hundreds of quilts which
range in style from traditional, to story quilts and
folk art quilts. I have had quilts displayed at the
Houston Quilt Market, and at the Pacific International
Quilt Festival.
“After publishing a series of three quilt books called Folk Art Favorites with Jan Patek in 2000 and 2001, I started creating my own patterns and marketing them under the name American Jane Patterns. In 2003, I began designing fabric for Moda fabrics. My first six lines of fabric are l’Esprit Provence with a French theme, Apple Pie with a 30’s flavor, Cherries Jubilee with a 40’s/50’s theme, Building Blocks with story panels and measuring tape fabric, Basic Building Blocks with printed alphabet letters and Peas and Carrots with new vintage story panels. Hancocks and Keepsake catalogs keep showing my quilts and McCalls Quilts will feature a Peas and Carrots quilt in May 2007. To nourish my French connection, I will be showing new quilts in the French publication, Quiltmania, which is translated into Dutch, German and English.”
