CHERI MANIZ Retired from California, my husband and I moved to Arizona in 1996.  It was there that I discovered my passion for quilting which has added joy, friendships, and fun to my life.  As soon as I found Charm Packs and Jelly Rolls by Moda, my imagination went wild and my sewing machine hasn't stopped yet.  From experience as a quilting instructor, I found that beginners want patterns that will make easy and successful quilts using the latest fun fabrics.  Charm Packs and Jelly Rolls are the perfect answer giving them a coordinated group of fabrics that are already cut.  We hope that you enjoy our patterns.

AUDREY GOOD Lifelong Pennsylvanians, my husband and I moved to Arizona in 2000, to be closer to our son.  Prior to that, I worked for 36 years as a public school teacher of visual arts and performing arts in the Pittsburgh area.  For a number of years before retirement, I also managed a community cultural program that presented and produced cultural venues.  Sewing has always been a part of my personal and professional life.  For more than 15 years, in my school performing arts program as well as in local professional theater, I designed and built costumes for a variety of productions.  Quilting was introduced as a child by a mother who sewed everything, including quilts.  Later, my love of quilting was rekindled when I produced the musical "Quilters".  This regional theater production, not only involved costume design, but a community charity quilt project to make the more than sixteen quilts needed for the show.  Now  retired, I pursue my passions, which include pottery and painting, as well as quilting, full time.
