I am a former associate editor for Threads and I was a contributing blogger on craftstylish.com. I’ve been sewing for as long as I can remember. I began making quilted garments after joining a quilt guild and got hooked. These pieces began appearing in fashion shows and winning awards. I’m a devotee of quilting and fashion. I have written numerous articles on the subject and teach my techniques at shows and retreats around the country. I live in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina – a Mecca for fine craft.
