Jan Ring Quilter Extraordinaire

By Paula Lickfeldt

Jan Ring has been sewing since she was a youngster in 4H. She began quilting when she moved to Florida in 1984. Since that time, Jan has made many quilts and quite a few of them have taken ribbons in various quilt shows including the Florida State Fair.

During the Pandemic, Jan decided that she needed a project that would take the place of eating. Corona the Elephant came to life.

This wall hanging was made from a pattern by Violet Craft, a well-known modern pattern designer. The pattern allows for your own fabric selections. Jan chose bright Kaffe Fassett fabrics (and others) for her bold elephant and embellished it with a trinket from the Nearly New. Corona was exhibited at the Florida State Fair and it won a second place award.
