After receiving her MFA in Costume Design, Elin Waterston worked as a wardrobe stylist in film and television, and in costume shops, building costumes and masks, painting, dyeing and manipulating fabrics. Eventually, that evolved into quiltmaking, which in turn, evolved into art quilting. Her award winning art quilts are in many public and private collections and have been exhibited in numerous galleries and museums. Elin is a member of the Studio Art Quilt Associates and Fiber Revolution. She teaches at The Country Quilter in Somers, NY and Katonah Art Center in Katonah, NY. She lives with her husband and son in South Salem, NY.
