Born and raised in Iowa, and via a long and winding career path that includes the military, government, industry and academia, Brenna Goode of Goode Day Quilts is a quilt designer and long-armer. Largely self-taught, she enjoys working with a wide variety of fabrics, styles, and designs. When she’s not homeschooling her kids or attending meetings for her day job, she can be found playing with fabrics, performing with the local flute choir, or teaching herself how to repair vintage sewing machines.
