I began quilting about 15 years ago. I did not own a sewing machine and was not at all sure this was something I could do. An instructor insisted that I could and even had me use her sewing machine to begin. Because of the solid foundation she gave me, I want to share that experience with others. That is why my favorite classes to teach are the beginning quilting classes.

I enjoy teaching technique classes because the students can take that information and use it over and over in their future quilts. I hope to inspire and motivate the students, because that is what they do for me.

My basic philosophy is that quilting is NOT a quick and easy hobby. But there are ways to make quilting QUICKER and EASIER. It is a creative outlet. There is a reason why patterns and colors are chosen for a particular quilt. There is always a story.

I have been married to Joe Ziegler for 20 years. Joe is an avid woodworker and we are partners in Wood Creations & Other Material Things. Joe makes quilt display racks and specialty quilting tools. Our "hobbies" complement each other!
