I count myself truly lucky to call Judy friend. She is one of the most amazingly generous and natural teachers I have ever met. Her ability to encourage students without making them feel like complete "dufuses" is a true gift.

I saw the Martian quilt in person several years ago in a gallery in So. California. I was mesmerized by the intricacy of the stitching and the fantasy of the fabulous composition. Then, by accident, I found a blog, which turned out to be by the artist of the fabulous Martian quilt! Judy is a true source of inspiration to me in my own creative journey.

I love Judy's quirky styles, she must have a wonderful imagination!
And she has my maiden name, Coates, so I figure somewhere along the path, we may even be related lolol

I first became aware of Judy's work in 2004 when I saw her "There's A Place Called Mars" at Quilt Festival in Houston. I was in awe then, and remain in awe at her creativity, sense of humor, and technical skills. Thanks for this great artist spotlight!

I was very lucky to have Judy stay with me in New Zealand, and I attended her workshop the guild put on – she has so many ideas (for mixed media) and is so encouraging and freely giving of her talents. It was fantastic having her. I hope she will return soon for more teaching!

I have not taken a class with Judy but do follow her blog. I most love the way she represents nature in her art. Very inspiring!

I follow Judy's blog and have taken her online Color Theory Class. She is a wealth of information and never fails to inspire me. I don't think I could choose a favorite when looking at her work! Thank you for a great interview!
