Meet the Maker: Susan M

Meet Susan

My favorite machine is my Juki (actually I own 2)

Now that I am an "empty nester" I do have a lovely dedicated sewing space--I feel so fortunate!

One of my favorite teachers is Sarah Fielke, from Australia.   I'm working to finish a BOM from a few years back that has many, many pieces!   But I love the colors and the pattern😉

My favorite part of quilting is piecing.

While I'm quilting I listen to audiobooks and when I'm not quilting I love to spend time with my family, camp and hang out on my pontoon boat in the summer, I also enjoy knitting and embroidery

Meet the Maker: Sonia J

Meet Sonia! 

Sonia started quilting in 1980 a time of no rotary cutters, no machines, quilting all by hand.  

Sonia's sewing space.

Sonia's sewing space

She likes both prints and solids. Her preference to hand bind.

Sonia says she enjoys every part and can dislike every part. Her favorite part of the process might be machine quilting on my domestic machine.
