Bio
I have been a quilter for the past 50 years. In 1996, I opened a retail quilt store, and in 2011, we closed the store and moved our custom quilting business into our home. You could say my life is quilting. I became a member of SAQA in an unusual way. I was gifted anonymously with a membership. I decided to join the exhibition committee as a way to pay back the gift. I also belong to the local Sarasota quilt guild and have served in several board positions. I have been the guild librarian for the last 7 years.
