welcome!

As a quilt personality, I'm told I'm ionic --- er, I mean iconic! And it's ironic that my presentations can be so much fun and simultaneously inspiring and enriching.

My teaching calendar is filling up for 2025 -- but I bet I can fit your guild in! Program Chairs, contact me and let's discuss how I can bring my warm, wacky, and educational programs your way. If you are within a couple hours of Philadelphia, PA, I will come in person, but you'll need to book a presentation AND a workshop for the same trip.

Live further away? I offer 3 PRESENTATIONS for your quilt guild meetings ON ZOOM which are LIVE, LIVELY, INSPIRING, & DOWNRIGHT FUN!

1--ROCK YOUR QUILTING! 12 ways to put your personal stamp on your work.

2--A MAGICAL HISTORY TOUR! American quiltmaking from 1970-2000. We've come a long way, Baby! See the iconic quilts of our lifetime, and hear the secrets behind them. If your guild is celebrating a big anniversary, you need this presentation!

3--NOT JUST FOR MOTHER'S DAY! Oy vey and mamma mia, it's historical and hysterical. And we nurturing types know, it's relevant for ANY DAY...but particularly fun for your April or May 2024 meetings. I'll be presenting that on Feb. 28 to the Quilters Unlimited of Virginia--Burke Chapter.

My MOST POPULAR WORKSHOP is also available on Zoom:

Weave a Quilt with Me

Here's a taste of what this workshop is all about:

"Honestly, this was as good as any in-person workshop. The pace was perfect. The instructions and videos, excellent. The breakout rooms to get personal guidance, also excellent. Oh, and sharing the experience with my friends was very much a joy during these pandemic times." -- Dawn C., Four County Quilt Guild of Mt. Airy MD

"You are an excellent Zoom instructor! Thank you for your knowledge and professionalism. I absolutely loved your weaving class!" -- Jeanette S., Cumberland Valley Quilt Association, Franklin, TN
