Instructor

Cline, Barbara
Barbara started creating quilts in her teens. She has over 40 years of experience in quilting and teaching classes. Barbara loves to break quilts down to their components to demystify them so that students can master those components, bend them to their will, and design their own masterpieces. Barbara worked at The Clothes Line (now called Patchwork Plus) from 5th grade until she got married and had children. She has six quilt books published by C&T Publishing. Barbara currently teaches classes at local shops and gives lectures, trunk shows, and classes nationally and internationally. She’s also taught quilt classes on cruises and been on The Quilt Show. Her travels have taken her to Dubai and Kuwait. She loves to design and piece wall hangings and quilts from her home in Shenandoah Valley, Virginia. Barbara comes from a close-knit Mennonite family of quilters. Every year, the women gather for a sewing retreat, where they quilt, sew, and follow other creative pursuits. She has enjoyed entering and placing in the Paducah quilt contest New Quilts from Old Favorite – Seven Sisters and Dresden Plate. The Paducah Quilt show, Quilt Odyssey, Mid Atlantic Quilt Festival XVII, and Hoffman Challenge has displayed one of my wallhangings. For more information, visit delightfulpiecing.com.
