Instructor

Robin’s quilting passion began in 1998 while stationed in Puerto Rico when another Coast Guard spouse taught her to quilt. Since opening NESTLINGS by Robin in 2004, Robin has attended Quilt Market, along with lecturing and teaching her workshops at guilds in the eastern US, Houston Quilt Festival, and Pigeon Forge Mountain Quiltfest. Her designs have been featured in multiple publications including Quilter’s World, Quiltmania, Simply Vintage, and Connecting Threads. She has also been a regular contributor to AQ Magazine over the past 5 years. Hand appliqué and all manner of hand work have been her greatest passions. Robin's love and fascination of the history of quilts and the women who made them contributed to becoming an AQS Certified Quilt Appraiser in September of 2019. Robin says, “These designers of the past constantly intrigue me and inspire my new work combining tradition with my whimsical style.”
