Quilting Adventures in Montana

April 23, 2015

I just returned from my very first visit to Montana and what an adventure it was! Wendy Gerke of Bearly Square Quilt Shop asked me to teach 2 days of free motion quilting. Last fall when I taught at Houston International Quilt Festival, Edna Gregory was the Bernina rep in my classes. She is an absolutely […]

Samples, Threads, Rulers and Cards

January 22, 2015

I’ve been busy during my “break” from teaching! I needed to finish two new class samples as well as complete a Modern-ish quilting sample that should have done before I taught in Houston last October.

Published and Prepping

October 23, 2014

It’s been a wild ride this week- finding out I will be published again and prepping for Houston! Last week I said I was giving all my brags at once-who knew?
