It started with one quilt for a new baby.
What began as a challenge became years of making baby quilts, designing patterns, and sharing what I learned.
The beginning
I decided to make my own.
When my wife's mother all told me they were too old to make quilts, I took it as a challenge.
I researched how quilts were made, bought a small sewing machine, and got started. The first quilt became many more.

One quilt became a way of life.
The first quilt was made for our new baby. The years since have brought plenty of learning, experimenting, and quilts made for other families.
