Bio
Born in New York in 1961, I started sewing as a child, and quilting as a teen. After several professional moves around the U.S. in adulthood, we finally settled in Maryland and raise three fabulous boys. Semi retired, we now reside by the shore and call Wilmington North Carolina home. Armed with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Graphic Design, I worked for many years as an Art Director in the packaging industry. My independent graphic design business, Mixed Media, has operated since 1988. After rediscovering quilting in the late 1990's, I started teaching quilting locally in 2000. I have steadily built up my own pattern line that includes 50+ beautiful florals, overlooking 425 postage stamp patterns, birds, bible quilts, baby quilts, 15 quilt pattern books, and many unique quilted projects. I now teach and lecture nationally at guilds and quilt shops in the USA. I enjoy and have had success entering and showing in National shows, and have had quilts published in calendars and on web sites. My intentions are to continue lecturing and teaching nationally /continuing authoring books and traveling the world through quilting.
