"To
everything there is a season and a time and a purpose unto Heaven; a time to be
born, a time to die,
a time to rend
and a time to sew." Ecc. 3:1,

Welcome to the Website of Cheryl Almgren Taylor - quilter, designer,
and teacher! A fabric-addicted quilter, Cheryl finds great joy in
bringing designs to life through the use of color, fabric, and
thread. Although she uses many methods in her quilting, her
trademark style is most often expressed using fast, fusible appliqué
techniques.
She is happy to announce the debut of her new book,
Deck the Halls,
from Martingale & Company (That Patchwork Place). The book features
10 Christmas quilt projects to decorate your holiday home using
simple piecing and fast appliqué techniques. The projects include a
Christmas stocking, fireplace mantel scarf, table toppers, wall
hangings, and a delightful “Welcome” banner for your door. Take a
peek inside a copy when you’re visiting your favorite quilt store. |

Cheryl is also the designer of the pattern series, Storybook
Snugglers, also from
Martingale & Company
(That Patchwork Place). As an elementary school teacher, Cheryl
loved read-aloud time with her students and has designed a series of
delightful quilt patterns that coordinate with classic children's
literature. These patterns create a special snuggle quilt to share
during story time with your favorite child and includes a list of
coordinating stories to read aloud.

Cheryl believes that quilts have a special ability to literally wrap people
up in our love. When we make a quilt for our home or someone we love, each
stitch comes from our heart. She hopes that her patterns and this website
will help to inspire your creativity
and express the feelings of your heart.
