Jen Wagner, Snapdragon Quilts - SHE Headliner - Bio
Hi! I’m Jen Wagner, a passionate quilt pattern designer, instructor, and lifelong creative based in Las Vegas, NV. With a love for bold designs, vibrant colors, and big prints, my quilting style blends modern techniques with a fearless approach to fabric. I believe that the right tools make all the difference—and I love sharing my knowledge to help quilters of all levels build their skills and confidence.
My quilt patterns are sold worldwide through Checker Distributors, Brewer Sewing, and EE Schenck, and I’ve had the honor of being published in Fat Quarterly Magazine. As a Benartex & Oliso Ambassador, I get to collaborate with top brands that support creativity and innovation in quilting.
Before diving full-time into the quilting world, I spent nearly two decades as a Nurse Practitioner and Certified Nurse Midwife, delivering thousands of babies and caring for women’s health. With a background in clothing construction from my college years, I’ve always been drawn to textiles, design, and the art of making.
When I’m not in the studio, you’ll find me sipping coffee on the porch, dreaming up new designs, and finding inspiration in the world around me. Whether you're picking up a rotary cutter for the first time or looking to refine your quilting techniques, I’d love to have you join me for a class—where learning is fun, creativity is encouraged, and quilting is always an adventure!
Let’s make something beautiful together!
