Susan W. Fox

Susan Williams Fox attended Pratt Institute of Art and Design and Purdue University where she graduated with a B.A. in Fine Arts and Education. She taught art at the high school level for 4 years before entering the Veterinary Technology program at Purdue.

Her introduction into quilting began while she was working as a sewing machine salesperson. Having long periods of time to sew, she decided to give piecing a try. Since that time she has taken several classes and workshops, attended many local, national and international quilt shows, and has been active in 4 quilt guilds.

After her marriage to husband, Patrick, and birth of their first daughter, she began a successful long-arm quilting business in West Lafayette, IN. Since their move to Westlake, CA, she had a second daughter and has enjoyed the time away from the business to create and produce quilts for her family and friends.
