Hi! I am Yvonne Fuchs, aka Quilting Jetgirl. Welcome!
The fusion of my engineering background and artistic voice defines the Quilting Jetgirl signature approach: my quilts blend precision techniques and thoughtful tutorials. My goal is to advocate for technical skill growth and learning through thoughtful design and community-building.
I am an intuitive introvert who is passionate about hometown and online quilting community, and I believe that quilts can cover the world with care and love. I use my blogging platform to cultivate a community with which I share my passion for quilt making and quilt pattern design.
My company name, Quilting Jetgirl, is a blend of my professional histories and the tagline “Sewing at the Speed of Sound” is a nod to my work on the second privately funded (non-government) vehicle to break the sound barrier. I have been quilting for 30+ years and I credit quilting with helping me feel balanced and connected to both my local hometown community and a larger global community. My pattern writing is heavily influenced by my technical background, and I strongly believe that:
- You are creative.
- Nobody and nothing is perfect: You are doing your best work right now.
- The secret to success is to show up, try, learn, modify, and repeat.
- We all sew at the speed of sound; sometimes it will sound faster than others.
