Welcome to my website!
I love quilting and sharing my passion with others. I hope you'll take a few minutes to check out my patterns, my quilts, my class offerings and links. Don't forget the free patterns!
My Classes at the Spring Sewing Expo Shows
What am I teaching at the Original Sewing & Quilting Expo this Spring 2012? 5 GREAT CLASSES - read about them here!
What's New? Now you can see every block in my Block-a-Day calendar! What a cool way to be able to have at your disposal 366 blocks - both appliqué and pieced - in 2 sizes! The CD is the real bargain with all the blocks AND 12 quilting projects. AND - wait - another 12 quilt projects and 12 tips sheets via an online link. What are you waiting for? Look at them here and then order the CD for $9.95, plus postage.

In partnership with Windham Fabrics, we've interpreted 4 beautiful Gee's Bend quilts for today's quilters. The stories and original quilts can be seen at the Windham web site. I designed and sewed the first ones, which are available as kits. We are working on the next four. Very exciting quilts!
