Huntsville, Texas
I am a national quilting instructor and designer for Sew Steady/Westalee who started quilting several years ago after years of making my own clothes. I enjoy making quilts even more because if the quilt doesn’t fit, just find a different wall or bed. I love the process of making a quilt from start to finish. I was blessed to attend classes with an international instructor several years ago and before I knew it I was asked to teach free motion quilting.
In 2016 while attending Houston Quilt Festival, I discovered Westalee Rulers and became hooked. Teaching quilting with rulers was a natural progression and many students have indicated that they find ruler work easier and more fun. Today, I incorporate free motion and ruler work into my quilts and classes and I recently collaborated with Jason Yenter from In the Beginning fabrics designing a pieced quilt with ruler work quilting using his amazing fabric.
I enter my quilts into several shows each year and have won numerous awards including Judge’s Choice, People’s Choice, Best Machine Quilting on a Domestic Machine and Best in Show along with a few 1st Place ribbons. All of my quilting is done on domestic machines and they are my preference.
My husband Andrew and I live in Huntsville, Texas, and we are grandparents to 5 grandchildren.
I am available for teaching, demonstrating at events and am often a speaker for quilt guilds. You can find me, and my ruler work classes along with instructional videos on the Sew Steady website and University, where I have several designs and classes to my credit. I was recently asked to teach my corded binding method after showing a quilt in the Houston International Quilt Festival in 2023.
The quilt featured knotted corded binding and was very popular. I designed the Corded Binding class for guild workshops and the class can be extended to include ruler work. I am happy to travel throughout the U.S. and Canada and perhaps internationally although English with a Texas twang is my only language.
