Beth Cooper has been quilting for over twenty years. She has made too many quilts to count and has a million more on standby. Besides quilting, she loves to act and direct community theater productions, dream about Christmas, and spend time with her husband and three kids. She also loves to do historical portrayals of Jane Stickle, the now-famous Civil War quilter. Her three cats insist on supervising all of her sewing projects.
