After years of devotion to quilting, my husband Larry encouraged me to leave my employ in the medical field and pursue my dream of being a “Long-arm Quilter”. We promptly purchased an APQS Millennium I have named Lydia, and started my long-arm business in what had been our living room.

After several years it enabled us to add an addition to our house creating my studio. We added a 16’x50’ space which not only gave me a spacious master bedroom and bath, but also a 16’x 25’ space for Lydia my long-arm quilting partner.

This pattern is from Dani Sawtelle's "No Beans About It" line and is stunning!  It is a revolutionary NEW strip piecing technique that eliminates the frustration of sewing bias in the traditional Corn and Beans block.  The instructions are in color and there is a companion DVD available.

The Bad Girls Guild is a gift to all quilters so tell us what you’d like!

Are we really bad?  Of course not!  We’re think we’re bad because:
We’d rather spend money on fabric than groceries
We have to creatively sneak fabric into the house now and then.
After a big sale at our local quilt shop, we cringe when the credit card bill is delivered

MY Bad Boy / Dear Husband travels alot.
While he was in Dallas he called me from an antique shop to tell me there was a featherweight there at a fairly reasonable price. Now how thoughtful is that!!
He will also hunt down fabric when he is out and about if I give him a sample and the amount I am looking for.  I can't tell you how many sewing machine he helps tote up and down the stairs.
I found a 222k one day, called him to tell him I bought it and he was tickled at what a great price I got it for.  It was a steal of a price.

Yep, he is a keeper!!
