Valerie Aita is an emerging artist in today's quilt world. She began sewing at the age of thirteen and by seventeen was fully devoted to quilting as a career. At the age of twenty she has already started exhibiting her work locally as well as teaching classes at quilt shops throughout southwest Montana. Valerie has found that, through surface embellishment and richly colored fabric that she dyes and paints herself, she is able to create the bold designs she envisions. She has been able to hone her skills through master classes and workshops taught by many of today's leaders in the field. Her goal and aspiration for the future is to have her work recognized worldwide and to share her abilities with other emerging quilt artists.
