Melissa de Leon Mason is the artist/designer/quilter behind Quilt All the Things. She is a counselor, FPP educator and pattern designer.
Melissa de Leon Mason had a pretty unique introduction to sewing and quilting. While living in Cairo, Egypt early in her marriage, she stumbled upon the textile Souq - a marketplace full of wonderful fabrics in bright colors and bold patterns. That was all it took for her to dive into learning how to sew. A few years of trying to figure it all out, Melissa is now designing foundation paper piecing patterns, teaching classes and workshops and having her quilts hung in national quilt shows such as QuiltCon and the National Quilt Museum. She is no longer looking for towels or discarded materials to stuff into her quilts to make them fluffy. She is in the big leagues! And like many of us, Melissa has a day job. She recently graduated and is a licensed practicing counselor. This plays a factor in her love of teaching. She loves to work with people and support them in their growth. She shares that teaching is fulfilling because she gets to see people walk away with a new skill that they can use to grow their quilting knowledge library. She also offers equity pricing on her classes and workshops. Melissa also recently launched her FPP Design course! The class is online and on-demand. However, sign ups are limited per enrollment period so Melissa can be present and available for her students. So keep an eye out for the next session to open!
