Petersburg, Russia. While there she earned two Bachelor
Degrees specializing in teaching, art history and culture,
painting, engineering drawing, and textile art. Anna worked
as a teacher for ten years and for two years at the Kirov
Opera and Ballet as a stage and costume decorator.
Subsequently, Anna freelanced in art and knitting sweaters
featuring her own decorative designs. Anna began making
quilts in 2004 after becoming interested in the "Simply
Quilts" television program hosted by Alex Anderson and
collecting fabric. Her road to high artistry has been a
journey of experimentation, practice, and patience. She has
exhibited her quilts nationally and internationally and has
won numerous awards. To date she has made over 70 quilts.
