Julie Belin’s quilting career began more than 35 years ago after receiving a quilt as a wedding gift. When her husband challenged "you could make that" the journey began. Although originally a self-taught quilter, her careers of engineer and high school math teacher fueled her passion for precision piecing. She's always on the lookout for efficient methods and tools to do just that.

Wanting to share quilting tips and techniques with others, she became a certified quilt instructor in 2016.  Since then, she continues to add new certifications to her repertoire.  She’s especially excited about her recent certification with Legit Kits.  These certifications have opened the door allowing her to share her enthusiasm for precision quilting tools and techniques across the country with workshops and lectures at guilds, retreats and quilt shows.  She loves seeing the excitement of her students as they master the tools and techniques.

When Julie isn’t teaching or lecturing, you can find her busy with her many guilds planning events, quilting for charity,  long-arming for her business or maybe even playing in her garden
