About me

What Do You Want to Do?

Text or message me about your ideas and I'll begin the dialogue to hone in on your quilting, longarm, or educational needs! No project too small to discuss, even if it's how to thread your serger or read a pattern! I have completed commissioned quilt projects, produced award winning quilts, taught students aged 8-80, and made over 50 memory quilts for customers.   My training is in traditional quilt block construction, but I have ventured into modern quilting construction as well.  With modern technology, I can work with customers remotely on custom quilts.

My Story

Inspired by my mother Carolyn who let me use her Necchi machine  to make stuffed animals as a child and my father's nanny Dollie who let me pump the treadle on her Singer while she quilted, I strive to explore and master every facet of quilting and sewing.  If I want to learn how something is made, I take it apart, research, watch videos and enroll in classes.  

Machines and Materials

I employ a fleet of Bernina machines, including a Q24 longarm with digitized Qmatic software and a Q20 longarm for free-motion quilting.  My preferred materials are high-quality quilting cotton, Quilter's Dream batting and Glide thread.  I've been quilting for the public since 2016, completing over 50 memory quilts for customers and hundreds of longarm jobs.
