I made my first quilt in 2004 and it was love at first stitch. I have been teaching quilting techniques since 2006. I am known for teaching One Block Wonder’s, of which I have made 67 so far. I am a Certified Instructor for Studio 180 Design since 2013. I am also “Island Batik Ambassador”, sharing challenges & projects and a Northcott Creators club participant using their fabulous fabrics.

My quilts have been exhibited at the Virginia Quilt Museum in Harrisonburg, Virginia, The Fenimore Art Museum, and the Farmers Museum in Cooperstown, the Earlville Opera House in Earlville, NY, and the
Munson Williams Proctor Art Institute in Utica, NY.

Two of my One Block Wonders are featured in Maxine Rosenthal’s new book “One Block Wonders Around the World”. My quilt “Waves of Joy” is included in Deb Tucker’s new book “Royal Treasures” based on the Hunter
Star quilt.

I offer classes teaching the One Block Wonder technique and classes using all of Deb Tuckers Studio 180 Design Tools. You can see my workshops here – https://ifthesethreadscouldtalk.com/workshops/
