Hi to all you quilters. I'm new to these message boards. It seems like you are an interesting and active community.

I've been quilting for a looooooong time -- 40 years. Our home is filled with quilts and quilted table runners. Our daughter has quilts on every bed in her home as well. And I still have so many WIPs, UFOs, ideas, and quilts on the to-do list in my head.
I'm trying to carve out more time every day to work on some of my own projects.

I'm a longarm quilter, and I love my work and my clients. I am lucky to be doing something that I enjoy so much, and I also get to meet wonderful people and help them finish their beautiful projects. I get to see a lot of the latest fabrics, patterns, and kits.


I'm looking forward to getting to know you and seeing your quilts. I love a quilt show, even when it's virtual.

These are a few of my quilts.

Thanks, Mama. It's all 19th century reproduction fabrics and I quilted 5" Baptist fans all over it.

I love antique quilts, and here in Pennsylvania we see a lot of that cheddar in antique quilts. I used it as the "neutral" in my quilt, so there's only medium and dark values and that bright chrome orange cheddar. It practically glows in the dark.
