About Us
Southwest Quilts is a small pattern company that features the work of Jan Cabral. Since moving to Colorado in 2001, Jan has fallen in love with the southwest in general and with rock art in particular. Jan is the co-owner of Quiltshops.com, a group of over 175 quilt shops on the Internet, where you can search for fabric and other quilting merchandise across all shops with only one click. Jan and her business partner, Bob Nick, provide e-commerce and class schedule database driven software to the quilt industry.

Jan has been involved with the quilt industry since 1990. Jan Cabral taught computer graphics to quilters and fiber artists nationwide from 1992 to 1996.
