Ghoulish Tidings - Pattern Book *Pre-order*

Sewing has always been an influential part of my life. Growing up, there isn’t a time I can remember that my grandmother, mother, and aunt weren’t sewing or creating their next masterpiece. Naturally, I began with handwork; that evolved into garment sewing. Not long thereafter, I began quilting and the rest was history! In the last twenty-five years quilting has become my passion. Now, designing beautiful patterns is also a huge part of that passion. I am employed full-time (outside the home) and the older I get, the more I realize how important this creative outlet is for me. It grounds me and helps me focus. I love being able to share this passion with others, whether it be teaching or helping them learn to quilt or giving them a quilt. To me, giving a quilt is like giving a hug, only it lasts even when I can’t be with that person.
 

My husband and I are blessed to live in the Pacific Northwest on a few acres in the country. We have four grown children, a couple (so far) bonus children, and a flock of grandkids, that are all our pride and joy. We are working on a small farm that is ever expanding. I wake up every day feeling blessed to watch my family grow.
