Jaye A.H. Lapachet has been making quilts since 1986, when she took a quiltmaking course at the San Lorenzo Adult School in California’s San Francisco Bay Area. She is interested in the interplay of colors in quilt design, and has recently begun using machine applique to study different shapes and the effects of layering.

Ms. Lapachet is a member of numerous quilting groups and oganizations. Before she began making quilts, she enjoyed collaging and painted in acrylics and watercolors. She has taken courses in many artistic media, art history, design, and sewing. She has more recently begun chronicling her families life & travels through scrapbooking.
