She works with quilting groups and shops leading classes and organizing workshops; conducts lectures and demonstrations at quilt shows; and serves as one of the moderators of the HQ Pro-Stitcher® Yahoo group supporting HQ Pro-Stitcher owners.

A professional machine quilter since 2007, Diane purchased her first longarm, an HQ Sixteen® with HQ Pro-Stitcher in 2008. She now uses an HQ24 Fusion® with HQ Pro-Stitcher and an HQ Sweet Sixteen to further expand her creative options.

Magazine Labels!  Guild Awareness Campaign and Decluttering for You!

These labels are ready for you to print at home and clear your stacks of quilting magazines by leaving at locations where magazines are shared such as a doctor’s or dentist’s offices, nail or hair salon, or even the place you get your car’s oil changed!

A terrific idea from Margaret Natof. Our thanks to her.

Not so interested in printing yourself? Pick up a packet of 10 or more at the next meeting–in the foyer as you come in.
