About Me
I have worked for Connecting Threads since 1997. I am the Merchandising/Project Manager. I coordinate getting our patterns tested and samples sewn for photography. I also monitor our website content. This is a great place to work! Quilts and coworkers that share the love of quilting, what more could I ask for in a job?

I have always done crafts and various sewing projects but didn't really make quilts until I started working here. I have given away a lot of the quilts that I have made and I still plenty left for me. That doesn't stop me from making more! I love decorating my house with seasonal quilts and projects. I also love to make baby and kids quilts because you never know when you are going to need a gift.
Hobbies and Interests
quilting, applique, paper piecing, embroidery, general sewing
My Pets

Glad To Be Back To Work

I am so glad to be back to work and using my hands after being off for 3 weeks with my carpal tunnel surgeries. Most of all I can't believe how much I have missed sewing. I am gradually getting back to it and think I can do almost everything. My DH and Karen have helped me with some rotary cutting so I can sew! I am so happy!!

Off For a Few Weeks

I have been off work for a week and I sure do miss my friends at work and my quilting. They sent me these beautiful flowers! The note said "Heal Fast or Else... I don't have anyone to laugh with or tease during the day so I can't wait to get back to work! I had carpal surgery on my right hand… Continue

August UFO Challenge

Any one up for a UFO Challenge? I started a discussion in Karen's UFO Group since I can't seem to get myself going. Are you tired of saying you are going to work on a dreaded UFO and not doing it? Join in if you want to accept the challenge and see if you can accomplish your goal by the end of August. The rules are your own. Let us know what you are going to do and then show your progress. I am going to finish my Indigo Stars Quilt that I started last year at a retreat and haven't touched since.… Continue

My UFO Promise to Myself

I cleaned my sewing room today. I have more UFOs and projects that I want to start than I did at beginning of this year, The deal I made with myself was that I needed to finish 2 UFOs before I started 1 new project. It seemed like a fair deal. I tried to make myself follow my rules but I just plugged my ears (la la la)and did what ever I wanted. (Kind of the same thing I do when I try to diet.) I started lots of new projects, only finished a few UFOs and shopped like crazy. I don't have any room… Continue

Hi Judy, Our Amos is also four and we got him first out of Missouri. Andy is three and we found her in Texas. Together they had five little boys and Jesse James is one of their sons. My Dad calls him the outlaw. They are our second family ... our children are all grown now, and I think they are jealous of the pups ... they are always saying things like they are so spoiled.

Judy: Are you back at work already? How is the wrist?

Judy, I cannot say that I have had carpel tunnel surgery. I do know for some people it takes extended time for healing and regaining of motion. Glad to hear you are doing well. Best of luck on your next one. Just watch for those repetitive motions.

JUDY, best to you as you have your surgery. Remember to remind the therapist that quilting (done the ergonomically correct way) is very good exercise for your wrist and hands.
