Meet the 2012 Aurifil Designers

Hi I’m Pat Sloan, the Aurifil Designer of the Month coordinator.  I’d so excited to introduce you to our Dynamic 2012 Aurifil Design Team!  Each month one of these amazing designers will be creating a stitchery using Aurifil 12 wt thread.

The 12 stitcheries will be small and very doable. All 12 can then be put into a custom quilt design from Sherri Falls, our February artist. (sneak peeks of the layout a bit later!)
