Alison Vandertang
Alison Vandertang, like many of our quilt designers, grew up watching her mom sew. She made a lot of clothes for her Barbie (which she still has). Current Alison knits, crochets, tats, embroiders, sews, and, of course, quilts. Early on, Fashion Merchandising was Alison's major, but her career path took a turn and she worked for the Postal Service for 32 years and retired as a Postmaster in 2009. Now Alison works part time for QuiltWoman.com and is sharing her wonderful designs with us. When not crafting, Alison and her husband Bill are avid gardeners (fruits, vegetable and flowers). They share all that produce with the QuiltWoman.com staff and their son, Mark, daughter-in-law Heather and their four beautiful grand-children. They also started making wine 3 years ago with all the fruit that is in abundance from their 9 acre property. |
