She is the author of several books about quilting, as well as the former host of multiple television programs about quilting, most notably Lap Quilting with Georgia Bonesteel.[3] She has been credited with inventing "lap quilting".[2] Early life and careerBonesteel was born Georgia Anne Jinkinson in Sioux City, Iowa,[3][4] to Earl Jinkinson, a lawyer, and his wife Virginia. She has a sister, Jill Moore.[5] She learned to sew by watching her mother, who sewed in order to save money on clothes.[8] She attended Iowa State University and Northwestern University,[6] receiving a bachelor's degree in home economics from Northwestern.[10] One of her first jobs was working for Marshall Field's designing store window displays.[6] She moved to New Orleans in 1969, by which time she was able to concentrate on sewing, her favorite pastime.[6] Quilting careerIn New Orleans, Bonesteel auditioned for the role of a seamstress on the Terry Flettrich Show, and won, beating 20 other women in doing so. One day, when the show was out of ideas, Bonesteel decided to make a patch quilt out of scrap material, which began her career in quilt making.[7] In 1969, Bonesteel won an audition with Sears & Roebuck to appear on the TV show Sewing is Fun.[8] In 1972, Bonesteel moved to Flat Rock, Henderson County, North Carolina with her family, where she began working at Connemara Farms, part of the Carl Sandburg Home National Historic Site. At Connemara, Bonesteel worked in Sandburg's upstairs workroom. While working there, she got the idea of making a quilt to serve as a backdrop for presentations there.[9] In 1982, Bonesteel opened a quilt store in the corner of Bonesteel's Hardware and Gifts, a hardware store in Hendersonville, North Carolina run by her husband.[16][10] In 1985, she was one of five judges at that year's Woodlawn Needlework Exhibition at Woodlawn Plantation.[11] In 2005, with her son Paul, Bonesteel produced the documentary The Great American Quilt Revival.[12] She has served as president of the International Quilt Association[13] and was the founding president of the Western North Carolina Quilters Guild.[14] Television careerIn 1978, Bonesteel first approached UNC-TV with the idea for Lap Quilting with Georgia Bonesteel.[15] The first six segments of the show first aired in 1980.[3] Although they were not widely viewed at first, these segments were so well-received that another seven segments were later taped, and the show aired on public television across the country.[6][16] In total, Bonesteel has hosted various television programs about quilting for 27 years.[3] TeachingBonesteel began teaching at Blue Ridge Community College after a neighbor asked her to take over a sewing class there when she first moved to North Carolina in 1972.[8] She has also taught at the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown since 1995.[8] Honors and awardsIn 1993, Bonesteel was named honorary chairwoman of the Mary Barton Collection in Des Moines, Iowa.[17] In 2001, she received the Silver Star Salute at Quilt Festival. In 2002, she received the Bernina Leadership Award.[18] In 2003, she was inducted into the Quilters Hall of Fame.[3] In 2015, she was named a "Quilting Legend" by TheQuiltShow.com, which also released a four-part video series about her.[19] Personal lifeBonesteel met her husband, Peter Bonesteel, while living in the northern suburbs of Chicago working at Marshall Field's.[8] The two celebrated their 49th wedding anniversary in 2008.[20] As of 2008, they have three children and eight grandchildren.[20] As of 2014, she keeps chickens at her house, and is a member of the Hendersonville Hen Society.[21] References1. ^{{cite web | url=http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n82111731.html | title=Georgia Bonesteel | work=Library of Congress | accessdate=20 February 2016}} 2. ^{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=fOY1vWUToJUC&pg=PA94 | title=The Quilter's Catalog: A Comprehensive Resource Guide | publisher=Workman Publishing | author=Cox, Meg | year=2008 | pages=94}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web | url=https://quiltershalloffame.net/georgia-bonesteel/| title=Georgia Bonesteel | work=Quilters Hall of Fame | accessdate=14 February 2015}} 4. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.blueridgenow.com/article/20090427/NEWS/904279964 | title=Bonesteels Celebrate 50 Years of Marriage | work=Times-News | date=27 April 2009 | accessdate=16 March 2016}} 5. ^{{cite web | url=http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1995-11-30/news/9511300183_1_winston-strawn-antitrust-du | title=Prosecutor, Lawyer Earl Jinkinson | work=Chicago Tribune | date=30 November 1995 | accessdate=16 March 2016 | author=Heise, Kenan}} 6. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XPiKBAAAQBAJ&pg=PA49 | title=The Quilters Hall of Fame | publisher=Voyageur Press | author=Smith, Amy Bonesteel | year=2014 | pages=49}} 7. ^1 {{cite web | url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1665&dat=19791228&id=T1gaAAAAIBAJ&sjid=xyQEAAAAIBAJ&pg=5536,6877715 | title=Georgia Bonesteel--Patch Quilt TV Star | work=Times-News | date=28 December 1979 | accessdate=16 February 2015 | author=Parce, Mead}} 8. ^1 2 3 {{cite web | url=http://www.blueridgenow.com/article/20120923/ARTICLES/209231000/0/search?p=2&tc=pg | title=Georgia Bonesteel has been quilting with the same group for more than 30 years | work=Times-News | date=23 September 2012 | accessdate=14 February 2015 | author=Stockman, Kate}} 9. ^{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=7HK4Ewq1c40C&pg=PA124 | title=The Carl Sandburg Home: Connemara | publisher=Arcadia Publishing | author=Reuther, Galen | year=2006 | pages=124}} 10. ^{{cite web | url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1665&dat=19820630&id=PGAaAAAAIBAJ&sjid=zSQEAAAAIBAJ&pg=5502,8349088 | title=Georgia Bonesteel to show quilting on Channel 33 | work=Times-News | date=30 June 1982 | accessdate=14 February 2015 | author=Ray, Lucile}} 11. ^{{cite web | url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/home-garden//1985/03/14/woodlawns-900-plus-pieces-of-needlework/a428cf44-0291-464c-b332-d98ae9c58a52/ | title=Woodlawn's 900-Plus Pieces of Needlework | work=Washington Post | date=14 March 1985 | accessdate=6 April 2016 | author=Dimich, Carol}} 12. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.citizen-times.com/story/money/business/2014/08/30/filming-forest-hero/14872067/ | title=Filming a forest hero | work=Asheville Citizen-Times | date=30 August 2014 | accessdate=14 February 2015 | author=Motsinger, Carol}} 13. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.unctv.org/content/lapquilting | title=Lap Quilting With Georgia Bonesteel | work=UNC-TV | accessdate=14 February 2015}} 14. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.blueridgeheritage.com/traditional-artist-directory/georgia-bonesteel | title=Georgia J.
