Meet Blue
I have a Gammill Statler Stitcher named Blue to help fulfill your quilting needs. If you are interested in using my longarm machine quilting service or have a question, please either email me using the form below or call me.
The quilt in this photo was pieced by Carolyn A. and is titled Refraction by Stephanie Soebbing of Quilt Addicts Anonymous. The quilting is by QSBS (me! :-) ) and the grafitti quilting pattern in the gray background fabric is one of Karlee Porter's Bliss Block Collection.
Covid-19 Precautions & Care
Covid-19 Precautions
With the COVID-19 flu virus being in the news so much, I have been thinking a lot about you, my quilty clients and friends, and have been wondering if you have had any concerns about me working on your quilts. So, I wanted to provide some information to you regarding my past, current and future practices.
- If I currently have one of your quilts in my queue, I will contact you prior to working on it to ensure it is still OK to quilt it. If you want to hold off on having it quilted, I can continue to store it in the queue until you give me the green light to work on it.
- If we have been in contact and I have slotted your quilt in my queue, and you are local but don’t yet want to venture out, mailing your items to me is always an option. Please let me know if you are mailing a top/backing so my husband and I keep a watchful eye out for the package via USPS/FedEx/UPS.
- If you are local and do want to physically drop-off, or pick-up, your quilty items, we will discuss that process. I have implemented contact-less procedures to protect both you and me. If you do come inside to discuss your quilt project, expect to wear a face covering (e.g. mask, face shield) and I'll have sanitized surfaces.
- Last, but not least, if you are not local but have been in contact w/ me, I am aware that you will be mailing your items in the future but please inform me once it is in the mail for the same reason mentioned above.
I want to reassure you that I take special care of your items when they are in my studio. Having been in the military and law enforcement, adhering to universal precautions became second nature to me and I have continued to practice flu-prevention routines, even outside of the “normal” flu season. Even before the COVID-19 virus, I washed my hands often and don't cough or sneeze over your quilts because...ewwwww.
Since scientists and physicians continue to learn more about this particular virus, I wanted to take a moment to reassure you that I use considerable care with your quilty items and want to return them to you in the same, if not better, condition as when you left them in my care. As your lovely piece of work waits patiently in my queue, it is stored on a hanger in a closet, in my studio, and not handled by anyone other than me. As an added measure, I am committed to sanitizing the hangers between each use and have increased cleaning of surfaces in my studio/home.
Let’s work together to stay healthy and educated (balanced with some calmness) and please know, that as far as longarming goes, I am here for you. Don’t hesitate to call or email me with any questions or concerns you may have.
