About the book >.>.> I started out in the quilting world very much behind the scenes as the husband and graphic artist for Amy Butler print and sewing pattern designer extraordi- naire. You’ve probably heard of her. Me? Well… They’ve let me creep around backstage in the fab- ric design and quilting industry for many years now lifting heavy boxes shaking hands and having the right tools to help out where I was needed. All the while I was absorbing the craft the passion and col- lecting the wherewithal to do something of my own. Thanks to the coaxing of my beloved Amy and the support of my friends at FreeSpirit I came out with my own line of fabrics focusing on “guy-friendly” designs in richly muted dark tones. My personal taste leans toward mid-century modern Japanese shibori and American folk art with a dash of rock and roll. As it turns out there’s an audience for that and it’s not just guys. As my fabrics have grown so has my penchant for using them. Please understand I’m actually a pretty lousy sewer. I can do it but it’s not a skill I’ve had time to hone and I realize that many other folks may feel the same way. They want to create but they’re intimidated by the process. That’s how the idea for Parson Gray Trade Quilts came into being. (SP)
