Southwind Designs features original designs and patterns by Annette Ornelas, a German-born quilt artist, teacher and designer.
Annette conducts workshops and lectures throughout the United States.Her unique approach to quilt-ing led her to design numerous dimensional curved piecing patterns and books. See her information at www.southwindquilts.com
