Nova Montgomery is a quilter and quilt historian. She is an independent professional instructor and lecturer who loves sharing her passion for quilts and history with audiences and workshop participants. Nova’s relaxed style draws her audiences into the lecture and has made her a popular speaker with civic groups as well as quilt guilds. She has served as a part of the teaching faculty for the International Quilt Festival multiple years and has been invited to teach at the inaugural Kansas City Regional Quilt Festival. Nova has built her reputation as a teacher by ensuring that each student receives personal attention. Additionally, she has been engaged by Texas A&M University as a guest lecturer.

Her specialty is the Singer Featherweight 221. She teaches a highly acclaimed Maintenance Workshop on the Singer Featherweight, carries a full line of Singer Featherweight parts and accessories, and has developed specialty products for the Singer Featherweight that are unique to her. She has built her business from scratch based on treating her students and customers as she would like to be treated.

Preserving our quilting heritage is extremely important to me. My purpose is to present our quilting history in an informative, engaging and fun manner.  I want to help owners preserve their Singer Featherweight sewing machines and keep them sewing for generations to come through education and providing quality parts, products and services for their machines.
