Make New Friends-Kelly Ashton

January 12, 2017

Kelly Ashton, Lori Kennedy, Quilts

Good Morning, Quilters!

One of the best parts of being a BERNINA Ambassador is the people you meet…

And one of the nicest people I’ve met is the amazing, Kelly Ashton.

Kelly Ashton, Lori Kennedy

Kelly is a passionate quilter who has been quilting since childhood.  She learned to sew in Home Economics and now sews on average 2-3 hours day and as many as sixteen hours!!!  At any given time, Kelly has 4-5 projects in process on her family of BERNINA sewing machines.  Her current machine is a BERNINA 780.

Kelly Ashton Quilt Book

Her specialty is precision piecing and she LOVES math!

Kelly’s book HERE  :Hexagons, Diamonds, Triangles, and More: Skill-Building Techniques for 60-Degree Patchwork is filled with her patterns and tips and tricks for precision piecing.

Check out Kelly’s website Kellyquilter.com It’s filled with her wit and wisdom–be sure to watch her intro video–you really get a sense of her lovely personality.

One of Kelly’s most popular guild lectures is “Quilting is not a Matter of Life and Death….It’s more Important than That.”–exploring the value of quilting-making in the quality of many lives.

Kelly and I collaborated on these quilts.

She did the piecing of course…

    Happy new year! Beautiful piecing, beautiful quilting Lori. I particularly love the purple and yellow sample. I so wish that I could love maths. I guess my brain isn’t wired like that so I am grateful that people who do share their designs.

    Gee, Lori, you are wearing only a sweater in the Bernina mountains..Hot flash ?? !! My son has requested hexagons in his quilt.. I have been on lookout for the right easily sewn pieced pattern…have 10 fabrics collected already. This book may have a suitable pattern for me.

    Beautiful quilts Lori… love the piecing and the quilting! I have made some great friends through quilting…. meeting wonderful like-minded people at quilt workshops and also through a local quilt group that I belong to and not forgetting to mention the online friends I have met through blogging from all over the World, some of whom I have met in person now too. It is a great way to connect!

    I too am struck by the purple and the gold, both the piecing and especially the quilting, which “glows”.

      Purple and gold–opposites on the color wheel and always classic!

    I met my best friend through quilting, and also met many wonderful people in the guild that I joined when I started quilting.
