Introduction Hi, my name is Katie! Thank you for taking the time to check out my blog. Some things to know about me: I have a wonderful husband and an incredibly adorable baby boy. My full-time job is as a Career Counselor for high school and adult students who are obtaining career and technical education training. I started quilting in November of 2012 after taking Quilting 101 at a Joann's Fabric, and then began to follow online tutorials (usually from the great Mrs. Jenny Doan of Missouri Star Quilt Company). I have been addicted ever since and love to create quilts, wall hangings, bags, and more. As my husband will attest though, please don't ask me to sew a button on clothes, repair a ripped pair of jeans, or hem a pair of pants. That just isn't fun and I'm not interested. I am so excited to share what I make with everyone and hope that I inspire others to get into quilting or at least try something out on a sewing machine. Honestly, until my quilting 101 class I probably had only touched a sewing machine once or twice and it has been one of the easiest things to learn with the right teachers and time!
