Jean Biddick

An award-winning quiltmaker of Tucson AZ, Jean Biddick, will be presenting her lecture “Behind the Scenes” on Tuesday, March 23 at 7:00 PM at the White Rock Baptist Church.  Jean is also an author and teacher whose specialty is creating stunning machine-pieced masterpieces.  Her thirty years of classroom experience, first as a math teacher, then as a teacher of quilting, has given her the ability to present detailed information in a clear, easy-to-understand way that encourages success in quilting students.  She loves watching students accomplish more than they thought they could do and enjoys giving them the technical skills they need to turn their visions into quilts. For more than ten years, Jean’s passion has been designing quilts inspired by intricate mosaic tile work seen in cathedrals and historic buildings worldwide. She has received numerous accolades for her beautiful machine-pieced mosaic tile quilts, including awards from American Quilter’s Society and the International Quilt Festival. Her quilt ‘Truro Mosaic II’ has been displayed in Truro Cathedral where visitors could see both the tile floor and the quilt it inspired. She is the author of Blended Quilt Backgrounds published by AQS.
