Sarah Goer, a former middle school math teacher, is inspired by geometry and architecture and loves bold, vibrant, saturated color. Her recent work has heavily featured solids. She enjoys the play and interaction of colors and values and the opportunity to feature detailed free motion quilting. Sarah will share her strategy for planned improv design, coming at a project with a set of rules or a “recipe” and then iterating and making it work for it all to come together. 

​

From Sarah:   I have been creating since childhood and learned to sew before I remember. I grew up hanging out in my mother’s sewing room and visiting the sewing machine shop where she worked. As an adolescent and young adult, I dabbled in a wide variety of crafts and artistic endeavors. After college, I was drawn into quilting.

​

In addition to quilting, I’ve recently gotten into mixed media and watercolor. I imagine it’s only a matter of time before some of these new skills find their way into my quilt-making. I live in San Jose, California with my husband and two quilter kids. In 2017, I pivoted from former middle school math teacher to quilt teacher. I enjoy inspiring others in their creativity. As a SAQA member since 2019, I’ve enjoyed the connection with and inspiration from other artists.  For additional information, please visit www.sarahgoerquilts.com
