England, Cynthia
Cynthia England is a native Houstonian and graduate of the Art Institute of Houston. She has been creating quilts for more than forty years.
Experimentation with quilting techniques led her to develop her own unique style and technique called Picture Piecing. Cynthia’s quilts have been honored with many awards, including three Best of Shows at the prestigious International Quilt Association and Viewer's Choice at the American Quilter’s Society. Her quilt, piece and quiet, was distinguished as one of the Hundred Best Quilts of the 20th Century.
Cynthia teaches and lectures nationally and internationally. To date, she has shared her techniques at quilting events in South Africa, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Germany, Canada, Australia, Spain, and Mexico.
In addition, she is the designer and owner of England Design Studios, a publishing/pattern company which specializes in the Picture Piecing technique. She has designed over 75 patterns that use her technique and is the author of two books and a DVD that explains the process. For more information, visit englanddesign.com.
