Introduction I am passionate about Fiber Arts and Quilting. For nearly 30 years I have done it all: from traditional quilting to finding my quilting first love - Art Quilting. I founded and ran Clemmons Quilters for 9 years and continue to host My Own Sweet Time Quilt Retreat for now 5 years in Denton, NC. I teach quilting at Sewingly Yours in Lewisville, NC, as well as giving private lessons. I love giving lectures, trunk shows and workshops to quilt groups. I work on a sliding scale to accommodate groups with all budgets. My strengths are my relaxed style and love of fun and humor. I am loving this stage of my life where my love of art guides my days and my spirit!

What makes you happy? First my wonderful life with my Mark. My three grown children who never cease to amaze me. My four grandchildren who are such great kids. My loving dogs who make waking up such a joy. My chickens, cockatiel, the wild birds, and the beautiful earth. My motorhome that gives me freedom and takes me to Kerr Lake. All of the wonder around me stirs my soul and my art!
