I'm Megan, your Troop Leader.

I created Quilt Scouts to make quilting more exciting and to inspire you to tackle more adventurous projects. 

As your loudest cheerleader, I’ll encourage you to step out of your comfort zone and try something new. Whether experimenting with new techniques or working with bold color palettes, you’ll be challenged to bring a daring adventure to your quilting table. 

Spoiler: I might even convince you to go hiking for the perfect quilt photo!
