Mary Knapp

Mary Knapp's quilts are a meld of many aspects of her background. She enjoys the process of designing and combining. Mary lives in upstate New York and spends summers along the St. Lawrence with her family. Mary has taught classes and had exhibits in a variety of venues, had a quilt used as art for the cover of a college math text and won numerous awards in a variety of quilt shows.

She enjoys teaching design classes using simple tools to create complex results. The blocks in her book Star Quilts can be done on a computer drawing program or sitting outside in an Adirondack Chair with paper and pencil.
