Quilting is in my DNA. Both my Grandmother and Mother were hand quilters. I still have a nine-patch quilt made by my Grandmother that was given to me as the oldest grandchild.

Quilting is in my DNA. Both my Grandmother and Mother were hand quilters. I still have a nine-patch quilt made by my Grandmother that was given to me as the oldest grandchild.
In 2008, I discovered Judy’s Amazon Star and I've been a Judy Groupie ever since. I love the sharp points and precision of paper piecing, and Judy's organizational and sewing techniques were made for me.
After retiring from a career in Human Resources in 2013, I began teaching Quiltworx patterns at a local quilt shop. I was certified in 2014 to share these amazing patterns with you!
I love teaching beginners! I've shared the joy of seeing amazing works of art from beginning students who once said, “I could never do that.”
My goal in life is to reduce the abundance of UFO’s multiplying in my studio.

I've had the honor and privilege of teaching with Judy at Quiltworx University. I've taught at the International Quilt Festival in Houston, at Empty Spools Seminars in Pacific Grove, at retreats and cruises, and I would love to teach a class for you! Until it's safe for us to meet in person, my classes are online until at least June 2021. And you heard right, online trunk shows are FREE!
Let's talk about a beginner pattern or for more of challenge, a six-month Technique of the Month program. Yes, you can do that!

Quiltin' and Cruisin'
My thoughts and prayers are with all the families who have been affected by Covid 19. It's hard to know what the future will bring, but health, safety and peace of mind are the highest priority for all of us. I cruised to Alaska in August, 2021, and with all the safety protocols and cleanliness on board, I felt safer on the ship than on land. As things return to a "new normal," I hope you'll consider cruising again. When you're ready, I'll be right there with you. I can't wait to take one of these cruises with you!
Alaska
June 11-18, 2022
Alaska is one of the most popular cruises, and no wonder! The magnificent glaciers, breathtaking scenery, and a quilt shop in every port. Check it out here:
