Her mother taught her to make clothes for her dolls and then for herself, and she did the same for her own children. Miriam discovered patchwork when she went to the National Patchwork Championships with friends in 1992. She was enthralled by what she saw and soon started attending classes. In 2001 she became a Young Quilter's Representative, and she now holds regular children's workshops. Her patterns have been published in Patchwork and Quilting and Fabrications magazines.
