About the Author ABOUT
THE AUTHOR:
Louise Stoltzfus learned the art of quilting and cooking from her mother, Miriam Stoltzfus. While she puts occasional stitches in one or another of the many quilts her mother always seems to have in frame, Stoltzfus regrettably seldom finds time for quilting.
With Phyllis Pellman Good she has co-authored two other cookbooks, The Central Market Cookbook and The Best of Mennonite Fellowship Meals.
Stoltzfus is an editor for Good Books and also serves as director of The People’s Place Gallery in Intercourse, Pennsylvania. She lives in a restored rowhouse in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. |
