I have been a quilter since 1983 and did all my piecing and quilting by hand. I learned when we used cardboard and plastic as templates. No rotary cutter!! My how quilting has changed. An Amish woman in PA was my teacher. She taught me nothing is perfect, just do your best and the Lord will take care of the rest. What a philosophy…one that I truly believe and try to apply to my life as well.
I'm a professional long arm / hand quilter. I love doing both. I am now taking long distance orders hence the web site. I continue to quilt for my local CO customers and now have picked up some quilt pattern designers to quilt their designs. I love to embellish my own quilts with beads and trims. Embroidery is also one of my favorites this is why I offer CrabAppleHill patterns. This world of embellishments and art quilts has blossomed over the past 10 yrs. I am now a Sulky Certified Teacher and locally will teach classes to learn their products in addition to their threads. Watch the website for details on these classes. Oh...this is Stitch & Bobbin (in the basket) they rule the house. Can't you tell?
II have been teaching classes, both private lessons and in quilt shops. I love teaching and during the day I am a teacher assistant for special needs children in Douglas County Schools.
I hope you like the patterns, embellishments, and items for sale. I am also offering hand-dyed floss from Africa to benefit the women who need work in Africa. Some of the proceeds will go to help the AIDS patients in Africa . I love this floss, it is on sale right now, as I am planning on discontinuing the product line.
