My Mom sewed when I was a little girl but as I got older she had a lot on her plate and didn't sew much until she took up quilting about 20 years ago. She and I frequently shop together and I enjoyed helping her choose fabric for her quilts. Before I knew it I was buying fabric just because I liked it! I didn't even own a sewing machine. Mom gave me a second hand sewing machine for my birthday one year and the rest it history. Since then I have upgraded my machine several times and also purchased a commercial embroidery machine. I like to make things to give as gifts to friends and family. I also make custom quilts for coworkers and people who get my name from others. I like to do T-shirt quilts and memory quilts. I like quilting because it is calming and there is always some new technique to learn!
