Sharon V. Rotz 



Quilter, Designer, Textile Artist



Sharon says  “from childhood, learning embroidery stitches from her mother and making her first skirt in 4-H, she has felt a close connection to fabric. She pursued a degree in Home Economics Education, worked in the ready-made clothing industry, learned tailoring and dressmaking and spent many years making custom home décor. When she entered the quilting world, Sharon brought with her this varied background of skills and expertise.”

Today she is a quilting teacher and speaker, an award winning quilter, author, commissioned textile artist and pattern designer as well as an exhibitor in numerous shows and competitions. Sharon says “living in a wooded area of central Wisconsin, each day I am surrounded by the beauty of nature. Armed with scissors and needles as my brushes, and fabric as my canvas, I attempt to capture a bit of that beauty in my work.” “I love the color, the texture, and the pattern designs of fabric. It is exciting to drown myself in fabric and come up with different combinations.”
