​

Sonja Bose Taylor grew up on a Nebraska farm. She and her husband retired near Alma, NE, after having lived in numerous US cities. Sonja’s work career focused on teaching elementary music, but her retirement years have focused on quilt making. Sonja enjoys making bed-sized quilts as well as many smaller projects, such as table runners and wall hangings for a variety of seasons and holidays.

 

Sonja enjoys working with quilting cotton and flannel, but she has most recently ventured into the world of wool appliqué. She has exhibited many quilts and other projects at the Nebraska State Fair; the most recent two award winners were wool appliqued on flannel. Sonja does all of the quilting of her projects on her APQS long-arm machine. World travel has been a big part of the Taylor family's activities.

 

Those experiences have contributed to the creativity of Sonja’s projects. As the featured quilter, she will display and discuss quilts and other projects with a wide variety of techniques. She will be available to answer questions throughout the event.
