About the Author

Hometown: Gilbert, Arizona

Over the past 10 years, Adriene Buffington has tried everything from traditional patchwork to art quilts. She soon began developing her own ideas for dyeing fabric. One of her innovative ideas (dyeing fabric inside plastic bags) eliminates nearly all of the mess associated with hand dyeing. Adriene is an enthusiastic teacher whose current goal is to make hand-dyed fabric accessible and affordable to every quilter working in any style.
