Joan Knight started making quilts in 1977 after marrying into a quilting family. Moving to Alabama from Louisiana provided the business opportunity to purchase a Gammill Statler, become an Area Sales Rep for Gammill, a BETA Tester for Creative Studio, and a Certified Trainer for Creative Studio version 4.0. Although a quilt teacher for nearly twenty years on various quilting techniques, she enjoys teaching Creative Studio the most.

For the past year she has been producing and selling training videos for Creative Studio through her website. A multiple ribbon winner at MQS and other national, regional, and local shows both with her own and customer quilts has helped Joan become a better quilter. She has been honored by the Alabama Legislators with a quilt exhibited in the Alabama Artists Gallery with the First Lady of Alabama, Mrs. Robert Bentley and had an interview published in the Japanese Quilting Magazine ‘Patchwork Quilt tsushin’. Her website is www.quiltsandthings.info.
