My Quilting Philosophy


I came to quilting from building musical instruments. I just love to put things together. I wanted my quilts to be soft and fluffy. I faced two minor problems when I took up quilting.
One, is I can't afford the really good fabrics. However I am blessed with many quilting friends that give me lots of left overs and old stash. Therefore, my color choices are determined by what I have on hand, not by the many colors that are available.
Two, is my hands do not have the fine skills they used to have and there is very little hand sewing or fancy machine quilting in my quilts. I quilt "in the ditch" or by tying.

The quilting is dedicated to the great ladies of The Quilt Company East Guild in Churchill, PA

I made this shirt, the skirt and blouse,
a handbag and hat,(not shown), and the border of a quilt
from quilting scraps saved over two years of quilting.
