Like many other folks, I learned to sew from my mother and grandmother, around the age of seven or eight. I have been making outfits to wear since I was about 9.

In the fall of 2001, I became addicted to quilting, and nearly every new baby in the family has gotten a handmade quilt since. I also enjoy cross-stitch and frequently incorporate it into small quilted wall hangings.

I have a growing collection of sewing machines, both modern and vintage, and all of my quilting is done on a 16" Crystal Quilter on a Magic frame. This lets me take on commissions for quilts all the way up to King size.

Occasionally, I can be found making renaissance garb and fantastical costumes as well as semi-precious stone jewelry.

I have cats & dogs that are always willing to help 'supervise' and always put in their .04.

I am always willing to talk to you about a custom order quilt or jewelry, so please email me!
