Welcome to my world of quilting! I'm Susan, a passionate longarm quilter based in beautiful San Diego, California, with over 20 years of experience transforming pieced tops into stunning, finished quilts.
What started as a hobby has blossomed into a lifelong dedication to the art of quilting. I treat every finished top with the same care and attention I would give to my own family heirlooms.

With over 20 years in the quilting industry, I've perfected techniques that ensure every stitch is precise and every pattern flows beautifully across your quilt.
Every quilt tells a story, and I treat each piece as if it were my own family treasure. Your memories deserve nothing less than perfection.

I do remember making my first quilt. It was queen size. I loved choosing the fabric and the pattern. I loved the piecing of the quilt with a quarter inch seam instead of that huge 5/8 inch seam used for sewing clothes! But when it came to the point where I had to layer the backing, batting and quilt top together with safety pins and spray adhesive, roll it up and shove it through the small throat area on my Bernina sewing machine, all the fun was drained out of making the quilt! My neck, shoulder and arms were aching before I got very far into it. I muddled through it and decided I would never make any more quilts if I didn't find a better way to quilt the three layers together. So I bought a long-arm quilting machine. I certainly haven't regretted the decision. Not only do I get to long-arm quilt my own quilts but I get to do the long-arm quilting on two to three hundred quilts for others each year. I have definitely seen so many stunning quilts. I can easily say I am always surrounded by beauty every single day.
I have been long-arm quilting since 2004. I love my Gammill quilting machines even though they take up the length of a rather large room. The actual quilting machine runs on tracks on a quilting table and the throat space of the machine is large enough to accommodate any quilt length and very large pantograph designs. My wonderful and considerate son Andrew created my website in 2010 and has been refining it and improving it continually. Thank you Andrew.
So if you love to make quilts but hate to layer the backing, batting, and pieced top together, let a long-arm quilter do it for you. That way you'll have so much more time to make more quilts for you or loved ones, to go on quilt runs, to browse through quilting magazines and books, to relax in front of the TV or listen to music while binding the quilts, to take quilting classes and socialize with other quilters!
Browse through the pantograph designs. Look at the finished quilts. And I'd love to do your long-arm quilting for you!
Enjoy!
