Don’t limit yourself —
have fun + learn to sew with me.

Why I’m here

I’m a National Educator for Baby Lock with 12 years of experience teaching sewing and serging projects.

I love to learn and teach new things. I want you to be excited about your creativity and have new projects to work on. I’ll teach you techniques that you’ve been afraid to try and show you new ways to think outside the box.

My life’s purpose is to help you understand your machine better so you LOVE it. (I’m not exaggerating, just ask my granddaughter!)

My Story

I am a mom to 8, a grandma to 20 and a wife to 1.  We live in a mountain valley in Northern Utah, where it has been known to snow in June.  Hot in the summer. Cold in the winter.  But I love Autumn the best, where the colors are warm and the nights are cool. 

I get totally pumped when I have a new idea bouncing around in my head.  It’s what keeps me going.  I have been making and selling things since I was a kid. Sometimes I share the good stories in my live classes.

When I see something, my mind starts to wonder what I can make with it or how I can make it better.  I can’t limit myself to creating with just one or two mediums and have studied all types of painting, art and crafting.
