Monday, July 16, 2012. I will be teaching a workshop at Whim-so-doodle in August on how to applique and piece a quilt square. We will make at least one of these squares in class and then I will discuss further finishing ideas. Wednesday, June 6, 2012.

A fiber arts learning center. Have lived in the Midwest all my life until coming to St. We have 2 great boys and one wacky Wheaton terrier. My degree is from Northern Illinois University in Textiles and Clothing. So what a dream for me to open a fabric store . My desire is to have a great place to create, learn something new, and meet new friends.
