Barbara Cline started creating quilts in her teens. She has had over 40 years of experience in quilting and teaching classes. Barbara loves to break quilts down to their components to demystify them so that students can master those components, bend them to their will and design their own masterpieces.

Barbara worked at The Clothes Line (now called Patchwork Plus) from 5th grade until she got married and had children.

Barbara currently teaches classes at local shops and gives lectures, trunk shows and classes nationally and internationally, she has taught quilt classes on cruises and has been on The Quilt Show. Her travels have taken her to Dubai and Kuwait. She loves to design and piece wall hangings and quilts from her home in Shenandoah Valley, Virginia; she has also had six books on quilting published by C&T Publishing.
