| Instructor Bio: | Loretta’s first experience with a sewing machine was in junior high school where she made a pair of powder blue corduroy overalls. Those overalls were loved so much by all of her friends that she ended up giving them to her, at the time, best friend Janey. She didn’t touch a sewing machine for the next 10 years or so, until her mother-in-law gave her a sewing machine as a gift, and she thought, “What am I going to do with this?” So she did the only thing she thought she could do, she began making clothes for her children, and then she began making them for herself. She then ventured into rag doll making, selling those dolls at craft shows, and teaching at her local quilt shop. It was there that she laid her eyes on a quilt that she just had to make, so she talked the maker of that quilt into teaching a class, and so began her love of Quilts. Loretta started doing her own quilting on a HQ Sweet Sixteen® and graduated to the Amara® with Pro-Stitcher® 5 years later. She has enjoyed teaching others the love of quilting ever since. She loves art quilting as well as traditional quilting, and combining free motion, ruler work and Pro-Stitcher to create custom quilting. Loretta has 4 grown children and 12 grandchildren. |
