Kim Schaefer began sewing at an early age and was quilting
seriously by the late 1980s. Her early quilting career included
designing and producing small quilts for craft shows and shops
across the country.
In 1986, Kim founded Little Quilt Company, a pattern company
focused on designing a variety of small, fun-to-make projects.
In addition to designing quilt patterns, Kim is a best-selling
author for C&T Publishing. Kim also designs fabric for
Andover/Makower and works with Leo Licensing, which licenses her
designs for nonfabric products.
Kim lives with her family in southeastern Wisconsin.

June 10 This collection of 23 easy, pieced contemporary quilts,
table runners and placemats is designed to make a dent in your
stash. The blocks, all squares and strips, feature quick rotary
cutting and straight-line piecing, perfect for the beginning
quilter. While the blocks are really simple, the results do look
more complicated and have a wonderful visual impact. The color
palettes used also would be great if you are looking for a project
for a man. I plan to hit my stash and piece a couple of tops.

May 10 With 10 kids in various states of in-an-out-of-the-house,
you'd never guess Kim could be so prolific. But, …this dynamo from
Wisconsin keeps on cookin'. Her latest book is a slight departure
from her previous, more countrified quilt books. The designs are
simple and graphic - as in straight lines - and the instructions
are written to take advantage of what you have lying around… We
like how versatile the instructions are without specific color
direction. It's like, hey, we can be trusted picking our own color!
Or more likely, that it won't matter because these are scrap
patterns. But whatever, it works…
