I've met her several times and had a class with her. She is so nice and very likable! And doesn't care if you touch her quilts, she will grap, twist and turn it so you can see it better. She said the last show winner was thrown in the corner or her studio and she wasn't going to finish it but her DH said it was too good not to finish. I saw a little of her applique at Paducah and all I could do was stare. LOL.
