Celebrating 10!

Hello Everyone,

It has been 10 years since I began my long arm quilting business. I can't believe it has been that long, I have been having so much fun!


Over the years I have learned so many new things and have met so many wonderful people who have touched my life in many ways.

Everyone so talented, giving, and friendly. Also, it goes without saying that they have ALL been an inspiration to me.


My Gammill Statler Stitcher has been the backbone of my business, and I love it!! But it because of all of you that I have been able to continue doing what I love to do on a daily basis.

But not only have I been able to continue quilting for all the wonderful quilters out there that entrust me with their masterpieces, I have been able to expand to.... my online fabric shop! My shop, believe it or not, is coming up on its ONE year anniversary!


One of my dreams was always to have a quilt shop and now I have the next best thing, a virtual shop!! Thanks to all of you!!

I have also grown as a quilter and pushed my limits and have had my first design published. I want to continue to grow, but I want to continue to share that with all of you.


To celebrate my good fortune with you and my 10 years in business, plus one year with my fabric shop, I will be doing all sorts of special things throughout the month of September!!

So you will need to check back here, on Facebook, and to sign up for my e-mail happenings. This should cover it all. But stayed tuned and check back on Friday for your first dose of goodness!!

Thank you, all!!

Until Next Time...
