Christa Watson

Hi, I'm Christa! I like to play with fabric and blog over at ChristaQuilts.com. I've been an avid quilter for about 20 years (since just after I got married), but only recently discovered modern quilting. I specialize in creating easy to follow quilt alongs on my blog. I love to encourage others to try their hand at machine quilting since that's my favorite part of making a quilt!

I'm relatively new to blogging and have only just begun to discover how soul-satisfying that can be. Whether it's being inspired by others or getting a virtual pat on the back for my work, sharing is an intrinsic part of my creative process.

I live in Las Vegas with my husband and 3 kids. We try to stay out of trouble by working together in our family business and laughing a lot.
