Sarah Kaufman, author of Folded Log Cabins from C&T Publishing is returning to Quilted Strait in October 2013 to teach her wonderful technique for dimensional Log Cabin blocks. Sarah Pasma Kaufman and husband, Rich, returned to Oregon in 2005, following home construction, cultural and sailing adventures in Shaw Island, Washington, and Haleiwa, Hawaii. They may or may not build another house in their future, but two things are for certain: Bend, Oregon, is where they shall remain, and Folded Log Cabin quilts will continue to be Sarah's passion.
Her love of teaching this process has made her a fixture at the Stitchin' Post in nearby Sisters. Just in case you think Folded Log Cabin is Sarah's only thing-six adorable grandchildren all need bed quilts periodically. She continues to take quilt classes of all kinds. Sarah is a member of the Hawaii Quilt Guild in Honolulu, Hawaii, and Mountain Meadow Quilters in Sunriver, Oregon.
