Desire to Inspire - See what July's Challenger, Lynn Bankowski, has done with Woodland Retreat flannel!

This is the bio for Lynn Bankowski:

Thank you Henry Glass Company, for the opportunity to participate in your Desire-to-Inspire Challenge. The fabrics are wonderful!

They felt like velvet when I opened the box. My home is Huntsville, Alabama, in the northeast corner of the state. We are in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains. Huntsville is called the “Rocket City,” because it is home to the Marshall Space Flight Center where Werner von Braun and his team designed and built the Saturn V rocket used to send man to the moon. The U.S. Army’s Redstone Arsenal, U.S. Space  &  Rocket Center, and Space Camp are also located here.We have all four seasons in North Alabama, although Summer seems to last for six months!

We are retired and have time to enjoy the grandchildren’s ball games, swim meets, concerts,

etc. We were tent campers when our children were younger, so I can identify with Jan Beach

Shade’s camping theme. We were warm weather campers, however!

I began quilting 12 years ago when a friend asked me to participate with her in a block-of-the month

program at Patches and Stitches, a local quilt shop. I got hooked, and she no longer

quilts! 

I prefer traditional quilts, usually scrappy. I like to use pre-cuts, but not exclusively. My

local guilds, Heritage Quilters of Huntsville and Madison Station Quilters, have several

members who excel in modern quilt design, construction and quilting. Their work is

encouraging me to branch out.

In addition to Patches and Stitches, we have Huntsville Sew & Vac, Threaded Needle Too, 3

Hens and A Chick (Athens, AL) and Hooked on Quilting (Fayetteville, TN) quilt shops in the

area. All the shops are very friendly and helpful to the novice and experienced quilter alike.
