I have been sewing since the age of 5, starting with clothes for my dolls (using tissue paper patterns and a hand-cranked Singer sewing machine). As I grew beyond what could be easily found on the store racks, I started sewing my own clothes. I continued sewing clothes for my 2 sons, and by the time quilting caught my eye in 1993, I had quite a collection of fabric scraps of all types and colors. These provided the basic materials for my first project. Hey, ya gotta start somewhere!
The quilts below are arranged in reversed chronological order, with my current project at the top of the list. Thanks for stopping by to take a peek!
