When I was much younger I wrote a page of some goals for my life. One of them was to have my own business in my home. I started thinking about a quilting business and purchasing a longarm quilting machine back in 1999. I decided to wait until 2000 since there was the big Y2K scare and none of us were sure there would be anything after New Years's Eve 1999 (remember)! So finally between Thanksgiving and Christmas 2000 the room to hold my lonagarm was completed and the machine arrived. It was sooo exciting to finally embark on this adventure. Things took off immediately and by the next summer I was hooked up with a quilt shop, busy as ever. I have never looked back. There was a lot of trial and error those first few years. Now I have a beautiful new studio that was an addition on to the home. In 11 years of quilting I have finished over 1100 quilts for customers. It's kept me plenty busy. Over the last year I have been pulling back from the hectic pace of quilting. There has to be time to do my own projects as well as all the other things in life. It has been a wonderful business.
