Quilter of the Month - January 2007
Stephanie Schaefer
Stephanie is a relatively new quilter and began quilting when she moved to Smith Mountain Lake from San Antonio, Texas in early 2003. Stephanie is an active participant in the LQG and was newsletter editor for two years, chaired the Annual Quilt Retreat last year and is again doing so this year.

Her first quilt, a log cabin, is proudly displayed on her granddaughter Kayla's bed in Texas. Her second, also a log cabin, is likewise on her grandson Monti's bed. Stephanie enjoys applique, hand quilting and most recently cathedral window quilting. Most of the quilts she makes are immediately given to friends or family, so her display is a bit thin right now.

Her most recent addition, the 2006 LQG Challenge quilt titled "Zing! Went the Strings of my Heart", was voted "Peoples Choice" at the 2006 Christmas luncheon [square at center of table]. Stephanie is a member of the Material Girls Bee and spends the majority of her free time quilting. (Lake Quilters' Tidings - Jan 07)
