Episode 5
Tutor Chats - Mistianne Guzman
Gail chats to Mistianne Guzman, who has been quilting since she was 25 years old and was going crazy for some color. She then walked into a store that had fabric and the rest is history.
Mistianne is mostly self-taught. She not only creates quilts for the joy of it (the smaller the pieces the better), but also for competition, having had her quilts travel all over the world. One of her quilts was used in a yearly calendar for clients. She has completed a skill stage 4 programme with School of Stitched Textiles in patchwork and quilting and has gone on to tutor for them for the last couple of years. She has owned her own online quilt store specializing in batiks, taught many classes, and is an avid hand quilter. Besides quilting she is a costume mistress and creates professional ballet costumes and crochets and embroiders in her spare time.
