Trained as an elementary school teacher, and used that training in several other fields, inccluding police work, insurance processing and phone desk, and teaching lessons on sewing machine operations for Babylock, Bernina, and Janome. Although, not an avid quilter myself, I have worked in several quiling shops, and loved helping others choose fabric for their projects. Currently retired, since Covid. Busy with 2 little granddaughters!
