Welcome

See my new fabric line, Ibiza! Pop on over to my blog and see what my new fabric line for Blank Quilting looks like! I'm so excited. I have three quilts designed around the fabric that I am almost ready to show off. The patterns will be available through my publisher, QuiltWoman.com. Welcome to my space where all things sing the song of quilting. I hope I can inspire you today with the magic of quilting. The most pleasurable thing we can do for ourselves is share what we love with someone else.

Please take a moment to browse through these pages. You will find stories and thoughts and ideas that I want to share. Even on my Humble Pie page you will find stories of my mistakes. As I always say, “Mistakes are valuable learning tools.”

I am including a recipe page that will offer a new recipe every month. These are from my group of girls that are my dear friends. We call ourselves the Ya Ya Sisters. We meet once a month and you just wouldn’t believe the food that comes in. It is so yummy, I just knew I wanted to share their recipes with you.

As you continue your journey though my pages, you will find all my patterns and books. The patterns and books can be purchased at QuiltWoman.com. They also supply to the wholesale market.

Please visit my home base quilt shop as well, Betty’s Quilting Etc. They are located just 4 miles from where I live in Spencerport, NY. This is where I hang out and play with the fabric. I hope that someday you can meet the staff in person. They will greet you with a smile and help you in any way to meet your needs. You will find a lot of my past adventures on their blog.

Last but not least, I am so happy to tell you about my new fabric line. It will be out in stores in the beginning of next year. It is whimsical flowers and includes a panel. Of course I would not leave you in the dark with a panel. I have designed three new quilts that showcase the panel in different ways. I’m sure you will fall in love with this fantasy flower garden.

As always, I am so thankful for your support and I look forward to hearing from you. I would be most honored to help you fulfill your quilting dreams.
