Eleanor Burns (born July 3, 1945 in Pennsylvania) is an expert quilter who starred in the TV show Quilt in a Day, which aired on PBS.

Career

Burns first started stitching on her Aunt Edna's feed sacks. Her first book, Make a Quilt in a Day: Log Cabin Pattern was self-published in 1978. The book has been credited with starting a quilt-making revolution as people learned Burns's style of stitching a quilt.[1]

She has since written more than 100 books on the subject of quilting. In addition, Burns has written many patterns and developed a series of specialty rulers for quilting.[2] The Quilt in a Day TV series, which first aired in 1990, was based on Burns' book Make a Quilt in a Day.[3]

Award

In 2012, Burns was inducted into the Quilters Hall of Fame.[4][5]
