Meet Your Tour Guide

Hi! I'm Lynn, your tour guide on this adventure and the creative heart behind the Wanderlust Quilt Society. My quilts are inspired by my travels, reflecting the colors, textures, and traditions of the places I’ve explored.
With nearly 30 years of teaching experience, I love bringing quilters together to create art that feeds the soul and sparks joy. My warm, approachable style helps students feel at ease, whether in-person or online.
As a former librarian and lifelong traveler, I bring a unique blend of curiosity, creativity, and organization to everything I do. Through the Wanderlust Quilt Society, I’m excited to share inspiration from around the world, one creative adventure at a time.
FAQ
How is this different from a Quilt Along or Block of the Month?
This program offers much more than a typical quilt along or block of the month program. This is a curated event to make you feel like you've actually visited the location. You'll receive video instruction on how to create each block, accompanied by detailed descriptions of the places that inspired them. Additionally, our book club, recipes, and extra crafts will enrich your experience, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the culture of the area. Plus, we meet live via zoom every month for additional instruction and to cheer each other on. There is also a private community for questions and sharing.
How am I traveling if I'm not really going anywhere?
While you will not be physically visiting the location, you will explore the area through captivating photos, engaging videos, delicious recipe ideas, immersive books, and fun crafts. This is the perfect program if you have already visited the location and want to remember it OR if you have never been there and want to feel like you have.
What is the size of the quilt?
The quilts in the adventures are typically lap size quilts.
What if I'm a beginning quilter?
Great! You are a perfect fit. The monthly lessons will ensure that all your questions are answered and offer you all the help you will need to master each block.
What if I'm an advanced quilter?
Great! You are a perfect fit. Your expertise will enrich our community.
What quilt techniques will be used?
The quilts may include traditional piecing, raw edge applique, and minimal foundation paper piecing.
Is there a kit?
Occasionally kits are offered by my local quilt shop, but I also encourage you to use whatever fabrics make YOU happy.
What are the fabric requirements?
The Fabric Requirements vary for each trip.
What if something happens and I need to cancel?
We know life gets busy, and quilting seasons ebb and flow. That’s why Wanderlust Quilt Society members receive lifetime access to all digital patterns, tutorials, and community content from their program. You can stitch along with us live or revisit everything whenever inspiration strikes. Because your access is permanent, cancellations or refunds are not available once the program has started, even if you aren’t able to sew right away. Cancellation is not available for the self guided trips. (You can view our cancellation policy here)
