Hello and welcome to my world. I have been sewing since the age of 8. I took my first sewing class at the age of 9. No need to tell you how long ago the was. In 1985 I started my wholesale decorative accessory company. An all made in the USA line of fabric crafted gift items, decorative accessories and upholstered real like children’s furniture. For nearly 30 years my lines were sold in retail gift and department stores throughout the world….. would you believe it!!
In between all of that I have taught quilt making in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts just to name a few for 25+years. Currently I teach projects and techniques that I love and create quilts for competitive entry. I have been fortunate to have been honored with a number of show ribbons highlighting my success and have been published in national quilting magazines. I have had the opportunity to speak at several regional quilt guilds sharing my excitement and passion for the art of quilting.
There is no doubt that I will continue on this path since quilting is my passion and I can truly say I am addicted to the excitement and reward the art has continually brought me.
For a little more insight into my quilting life check out my You Tube video at www.quiltalliance.com taped at the International Quilt Festival in Houston, Texas 2016 with my most prized quilt.
