My Quilting Journey: from DQN Member to Professional Quilter
Picture
 
Let me take you on a journey that started over 25 years ago when I attended my very first DQN meeting. As a starry-eyed newbie, the guild welcomed me with open arms and encouraged my creative exploration. I "grew up" in this guild as I honed my skills – first as a quilt show participant, and later as a machine quilting instructor. Through the guild's influence, I learned by example how to be an effective teacher, and how to find my voice in the quilting world.
 
I'm now excited to share the paths I took along the way which led me to where I am today: an author, fabric designer, brand ambassador, and international instructor. If you have desires to follow your own professional creative path, I'm here to cheer you on, all the way!
