Q: Why are you a quilt designer? When did you start designing quilts and quilted projects and what has been your inspiration throughout your quilt designing career?
A: My love of fabric began when I was 10. My grandmother gave me a stack of fabric, a cardboard square, a pencil and scissors. She then showed me how to arrange the squares into a pattern and sew them together on her treadle machine. Since then I have been hooked. I designed my first quilt at the age of 14. It was a quilt for my youngest sister. Over the years I have made many quilts for family and friends. My family has always been my inspiration for quilt designs, starting with my grandmother, mom, sisters, and now my husband, children, and grandchildren.
