"Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years"
"Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years"
David is self-taught and began quilting in the early 1990's. He loved woodworking and thought of the sewing machine as just another tool he could use. He would watch quilting shows on television and go into local quilt shops to study their display quilts. He then would go home and make his own creations.
Teresa would get frustrated with having to pick up all the loose threads around the house and didn't become interested in quilting until after a trip to the Houston International Quilt show in 2005. She too became infected with the Quilting Bug and David became her first teacher.
David is a traditional piecer and Teresa leans toward more modern techniques. Together they like to exchange ideas for new quilts using both of their skill sets. They love to coteach other quilters whether beginner or experienced and offer several different classes. They both have had quilts displayed at Houston and Paducah and have had quilts travel the country with the Hoffman Challenge Quilts. They have won various ribbons throughout their careers including Best of Show at the Kansas State Fair.
David and Teresa are always learning from their quilting community and have been members of several guilds. Many of these quilt buddies have become lifelong friends. The quote you will find on our home page is from Simone Signoret and sums up our life. "Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years"
Happy quilting everybody!
