Jill Johnson grew up on an Idaho potato farm, and she and her husband Mark currently live on a potato farm near Silver Creek. But she is equally passionate about quilting, and she makes some beautiful ones.

Johnson says herself that “these ain’t your grandma’s quilt.” And, indeed, she blends the traditional with contemporary to create fresh looking quilts that serve as functional art. Meet Jill Johnson in today’s Eye on Sun Valley video. And check out some of her work at www.j-coterie.com.
