She has appeared on PBS Television demonstrating her distinctive talents and showcasing her phenomenal quilts on Lindas Long Arm Quilting.  She is in the process of producing several books and has completed a calendar featuring her techniques. Cheri's techniques can be found on thequiltingschool.com.

Cheri has also proven her entrepreneur abilities by starting a business called Cheris Crystals. Thus business services quilters who adorn their quilts (and other fashion accessories as well) with fine Austrian, Swarovski Hot Fix Crystals, as she first did in 1999.  It is now an incredibly popular phenomenon and can be seen on numerous quilts entered in shows world wide.  Cheris Crystals was the sponsor for Fandangle Spangle, a juried exhibit of embellished quilts presented by the Museum of the American Quilters Society.

Cheri can be found traveling around the country demonstrating her techniques in workshops at quilt shows and presentations for quilt guilds.  Her quilting studio and home is in Corinth, Texas, and with the help of her very supportive husband, Greg, she has been able to accomplish her dreams.  He is an integral part of the team and is responsible for the day-to-day operations of www.cheriscrystals.com and their Meineke Car Care Center in Richardson, Texas. Below you will see techniques from some of her quilts that will be demonstrated in her videos.
