This is my incredible family.  Of course there is my husband Jon, Brandon (my 11 year old), Noah (my 9 year old) and Brody (born May 8 2008).  Without the support of all of them there would be no Stone House Quilting. 
I graduated from Philadelphia College of Textiles and Science in 1991 with a degree in Textile Management and Marketing.  I have always loved fabrics but never thought that this is where I would have ended up.
I began my quilting journey in 1997 when my oldest was born.  I had always had a love for the hum of a sewing machine and find the sound very therapeutic.  This first quilt was a simple rail fence pattern in blues.  (i know, not very adventurous)  Once the top was done, I wrestled the beast into the sewing machine for some crosshatching.  I love that quilt for all that it taught me.  LOL
In 2004, while working at the local quilt shop I found out that there are actually people with machines that they "drive" so you don't have to wrestle the quilt through your sewing machine.  I was fascinated.  I decided that would be a great business and off I went to "purchase" this machine.   In fact, in 2007 I purchased my second longarm with the Intelliquilter and am having more fun then ever. 
I continue to piece quilts for myself, gifts and even some competition when time allows.  I have the most fun with simple piecing and elaborate quilting.
