Avid Quilter and Fabric Designer, Brett Lewis, aka Natural Born Quilter, is from Edmonton Alberta. He discovered his love of the craft through learning to sew and quilt in the spring of 2016. Fast forward seven years and over 60 quilts later, Brett has attended Spring and Fall International Quilt Markets, with his work and original patterns showcased in Birch Fabric’s, Hobbs Batting, Electric Quilt and his very own Quilt Market booth. He has been featured in the Designer Profile section of the acclaimed magazine Love Patchwork and Quilting, various podcasts, CBC Radio, CTV Edmonton News, and instructs his very own EQ8 designed quilt patterns, with classes focusing on foundation paper piecing, fussy cutting, and curves.

His quilting adventures have taken him to attend an Alaska quilting cruise, becoming a certified Sew Kind of Wonderful Instructor, and a 2022 and 2023 BERNINA Canada Ambassador. And to come full circle, Brett has designed four fabric collections for Northcott Fabrics, showcasing his love for nature’s flora and fauna. Brett describes his quilting style as Contemporary Traditional, using contemporary vibrant and bold fabrics with traditional patterns.
