Julie Belin’s quilting career began more than 30 years ago after receiving a quilt as a
wedding gift. When her husband challenged “you could make that” the journey began.
Although originally a self-taught quilter, her careers of engineer and high school math
teacher fueled her passion for precision piecing. She’s always on the lookout for
efficient methods and tools to do just that.
Wanting to share quilting tips and techniques with others, she became a certified quilt
instructor for Studio 180 Design and Sew Kind of Wonderful and is pursuing the same
for Quiltworx. These certifications have opened the door for her to share her
enthusiasm for quilting tools and techniques across the country with workshops and
lectures at guilds, retreats and quilt shows. She loves seeing the excitement of her
students as they master the tools.
When Julie isn’t teaching or lecturing, you can find her busy with her many guilds
planning events, quilting for charity, long-arming for her business or maybe even
playing in her garden.
