Welcome to
Dragonflyquilts.com, the website of quilt artist, teacher and author Maggie Ball. I’m glad you are visiting my website and hope
that you will enjoy browsing the pages.
I have been quilting for over 20 years and enjoy using a variety of
techniques, creating my own designs from elements of traditional
patterns. My quilts have been exhibited both locally and nationally. Check out my quilt gallery.
Teaching quilting seems a natural extension of my passion and I find
it rewarding. Check out the lectures and classes
I offer.
Visit my books page
for further details on my books - Creative Quilting with Kids, Patchwork and Quilting with Kids,
and Traditional Quilts with a Twist (Krause Publications, 2001,
2003 and 2006). My next book, Bargello Quilts with a Twist, will be
available in the September 2008.

In June 2004, I went
to Mongolia as a volunteer, to teach quilting to needy women in the capital city of
Ulaanbaatar. I returned in June 2006 to help organize the first
International Quilt Show in Mongolia. In collaboration with quilters from
England, we hosted a Mongolian
booth at the 2007 Festival of Quilts in UK. Check Mongolia
for more details and pictures. Please help us raise $70,000 to
purchase a building for a permanent community center in Mongolia by
making a donation. Matching donation of $20,000 will be made
provided we reach $50,000 by October 2008. Please click here to make a donation.
