Lisa Erlandson is a compulsive quilt collector whose habit has led to several quilt-related specialties. Lisa is an AQS Certified Appraiser of Quilted Textiles, quilt restorer, and quilt historian. In addition to collecting and occasionally selling vintage quilts and fabrics and restoring and repairing new and old quilts, she finds time to make a few quilts of her own.

Lisa is a native Texan and lives outside Gainesville, Texas with her husband, two children and a large variety of four-footed friends.

I love quilts - I feel they have a story to tell. All quilts have a value - whether it is emotional or monetary. My goal is to help quilt owners protect their family history by restoration, documentation, care advice and appraisals. Quilts are an important part of our social history and I hope to help others to see that.
