About Me

My photo
Virginia Smith
I'm first a wife, mother and grandmother. Second, I'm a longarmer, a quilter, a sewing instructor and seamstress. I enjoy all kinds of crafts, though time to indulge in them is limited. I am a longarm quilter, and I love it! I love quilting and have made many quilts for myself, my loved ones, as well as commissioned by clients. Want to make it yourself? I could teach you. You can do it, if you want. I believe that learning to do things for yourself is very liberating and, gives you incredible freedom and a phenomenal sense of accomplishment. I love teaching people of all ages to quilt and sew and empowering them with that skill. Questions? Feel free to e-mail me at showmesewing@gmail.com
