Melissa started quilting as a hobby in 2005 but since starting her blog, Happy Quilting, five years later, her hobby has turned into her passion. This passion for quilting has led to creating her own designs that she shares as tutorials, published works, a pattern line, and even books. Melissa loves designing and finds inspiration in just about everything. She and her husband and five children live in Cedar City, Utah.
