Have sewed all my life, mostly clothes and home decorating items. Taught tailoring during college. So certainly know my way around a sewing machine and fabric.
About two years ago I decided that I needed a creative outlet - and sewing was the natural choice.

The online courses from Craftsy are fabulous! Am so glad I discovered this great site and this kind, generous and encouraging community of quilters.
Last Christmas my dear husband surprised me with a fabulous Pfaff Creative 4.0- it makes quilting so easy, and so much more fun. Hopefully soon my work will be worthy of this machine. I seem to be obsessed with quilting - it is such good therapy!
Oh, and I LOVE cats!
