Get to Know
I love to sew, quilt and embroider using my Husqvarna Viking Designer SE sewing and embroidery machine and Huskylock 936 serger. I homeschooled both of my children through high school graduation. My 22 year old son graduated 2 years ago (and has already earned his Associate's Degree in Computer Forensics) and my 20 year old daughter graduated last year and is working on her Associate's in Liberal Arts. I am also in school, working on my Bachelor's Degree in Information Technology. My husband and I just celebrated our 27th wedding anniversary in April 2011. My daughter and I read the Twilight series of books by Stephenie Meyer (published by Little, Brown and Company). For Christmas one year, I made several Twilight inspired gifts for her and the response from her and others was so encouraging, that I decided to make more and sell them. In addition, I have made many quilts, handbags, clothes, costumes, etc. always with the response from others being, "You should sell your stuff!" So, here I am.... All of the things you see here can be customized to your specifications. I would also love to create a custom item for you at your request. Tell me what you want and I can make it for you!

My son and my daughter. My biggest accomplishments and sources of pride.
My 21 year old niece, Danielle Brown, was murdered in Tallahassee, FL in February 2010. I made these memorial ribbons for the family.
I made this skirt, top and vest. It has TONS of embroideries and took a couple of weeks to complete.
I made this quilt for my son. The pattern is called "Drunkard's Wave"
