I'm a homemaker, mother, wife, gardener, and crafter. I worked in the corporate world as an executive office assistant and ended my career as a graphic designer at a local apparel company. I bring my color and design skills to quilting. Growing up, my mom was a homemaker. The old fashioned kind who taught her daughter how to cook, sew, craft, and clean. Awesome enough to pass on many necessary skills to make me unique in current day. I would sit and watch her sew for hours while she made me the usual 'play clothes' or nightgown. In jr. high and high school, I eventually tried my hand at dressmaking. I would wait for a nice event and make a party dress for the occasion. After high school, when I left home, she switched to quilting and went to teaching, together with my aunt, at a local fabric shop. She would share her learnings with me and I would dabble in quilting on and off for the next 30 years. When my aunt passed in the mid 2000’s, she left me half her stash. Since then I have been paying her gift forward, making quilts for friends and relatives. It was something to keep my sanity through The Pandemic. I love to share my knowledge and expertise in the fiber arts that is quilting. I currently quilt with the local Quilts of Valor and Quilts for Cops |
