My Quilting Family

Over the years, I have had the chance to meet and become friends with so many wonderful people through quilting.  They are one of the greatest rewards of over fifteen years of quilt making.  I'd like to honor and recognize them in this photo gallery.  When people ask me how I learned to quilt, I say "self-taught," but mostly it was by asking questions of very helpful and generous shop-owners, clerks and fellow quilters.  I continue to make and sell quilts only with the talents and good graces of others.  Thank you all for being a part of my life!
