“Retro Curved Pieced Quilts Trunk Show”

by Erin Grogan

Erin Grogan is a modern quilt pattern designer and educator based in Northern Virginia. Erin founded her quilting company, Love Sew Modern, in 2020. She’s known for nostalgic, vibrant, and playful quilt pattern designs and a supportive teaching style.

Erin has published over 30 quilt patterns, including in magazines such as Quilter’s World and By Annie. Her book, Retro Curved Pieced Quilts, includes 15 retro inspired designs and tutorials on piercing curves, dresdens, and big stitch quilting.

She has taught quilting workshops across the United States and abroad, including most recently on a quilting cruise to the Caribbean, QuiltCon Phoenix, and Road to Virginia. Erin is passionate that every quilter is capable of learning to piece curves, they just have to find the right technique that works for them. During her workshops Erin excels at guiding students to discover their perfect curves technique and fosters students confidence for future projects
