Barbara Polston

Quilter by Avocation

Welcome

Quilting is my passion. I’ve never met a quilt I didn’t like and I know I’m not alone!

I am proud to be the founder of the Arizona Quilters Hall of Fame and hope that this organization celebrating quiltmakers will be part of my lasting legacy.

I make quilts, some of which have won awards. I write about quilting. Now, I’m sharing what I know in classes and through talks that I hope entertain and enlighten.

On this website, I share my quilts, my thoughts, and my workshop and lecture offerings. I look forward to hearing from you!
