Karen In Print


 

Besides the books I’ve written; CELTIC PIECED ILLUSIONS, 3 QUILTERS CELEBRATE THE 4 SEASONS, FLORAL ILLUSIONS, COMBING THROUGH YOUR SCRAPS, OPTICAL ILLUSIONS FOR QUILTERS and 3-D FUN WITH PANDORA'S BOX,  I’ve also written many magazine articles and I’ve been profiled in several books.

If you are a program chairman and I am coming to teach at your guild, you may want to give this list to your guild members. It will help familiarize them with my work.  Your members can also join my "Karen Combs' Studio Fan Page" on FaceBook or visit my blog at www.karencombs.wordpress.com

If you are a quilter, you may enjoy reading the articles, looking at the quilts or using the patterns I’ve designed and written.

Enjoy!

Karen
