While many of her listeners know Frances as a novelist who writes about quilts and quiltmakers, she’s known outside of the quilt world for her “beloved books for tweens and teenagers” (New York Times Sunday Book Review). Since 2010 she has hosted a popular podcast about her life as a quilter, “The Off-Kilter Quilt,” and in 2016 she established a small publishing company to bring out a line of stories and novels especially for quiltmakers and quilt lovers. The quilting novel Birds in the Air was followed by the short story collection Margaret Goes Modern in 2017. You can learn more about Frances at her author website: FrancesDowell.com
