Home: Auburn, Indiana

I’m Rona Herman, also known as Rona the Ribbiter, and I’m an author, teacher, pattern designer, Tour Manager and YouTube host with a passion to experience all that life (and quilting) has to offer.

With a love of math and geometry, I’ve been ‘doodling’ quilt like designs since grade school. However, once my sister finally taught me to sew in 2010, I was off and running! As a self-taught quilter, I’ve tested many methods and techniques to find my niche. Everything from basic stitching and fabric choices to applique and pattern design. After landing a job as a quilt instructor at my local JoAnn Fabric in 2016, I discovered my love of teaching.

Today I’m showing quilters the world through my YouTube videos, taking quilters around the world on my Quilt Tours and helping quilters travel the world themselves through my blog and books. All that AND I’m teaching quilters around the world color theory and my unique style of using fabric and color to turn traditionally pieced blocks into modern quilt designs. My quilts may look difficult. But, in truth, they are as easy to assemble as any traditional quilt!
