About Us
I’ve been sewing longer than I’ve been driving. I started sewing on my grandmother’s old Singer years before I learned to drive, and then began teaching elementary school after college. As a National Board Certified teacher and an artist, fabric arts is the perfect blend of what I love to do—teaching people how to bring out their creative side. As master chefs create their own dishes without recipes, so I create landscape quilts.
Quilting and sewing can be so much more than just patterns, yet that’s exactly where we start to build a strong foundation and understanding of the“how” and “why” of what we do. That said, I strongly feel that there’s no “wrong” in art, so I work with each quilt and each student to build on their strengths and reach their goals from producing award winning quilts to making simple crafts for home, family, and friends.
Outside of quilting, sewing, and teaching, I love adventures. I especially love going on adventures with my family. We spend as much time as we can exploring the world around us, through various outdoor activities year round and traveling to new places as time allows.
I hope you’ll find as much inspiration from the world around us as I have for creating art, so let’s start sewing!
Custom Orders
If it's a T-shirt quilt, wedding gift or just a cuddle quilt you're are interested in, I'm happy to work with you on any project you have in mind.
Machines and Materials
I do all my quilting on a APQS Long arm quilting machine. My table is 12 feet long and can accommodate a 120 inch quilt top. The machine is computerized and can stitch out your quilt with an overall pattern or we can design a custom look for your special projects.
