I have had a love for drawing and sewing, fabrics and color since I was a child.
After graduating from RIT with a BFA in Medical Illustration, I worked as a graphic designer for Bell Laboratories in Holmdel, New Jersey and then for
American Express in New York City.  It
was during this period that I took an Eleanor Burns’ Quilt-in-a-Day class and became hooked on quilting.

In 2000, my family moved back to the USA, more specifically, to Arizona, after living in London for 13 years. It was at this time that I discovered digitizing and a new outlet for my old illustration skills.

I decided to start Fabric Confetti in 2012. I wanted to combine my illustration skills with my
digitizing skills and developed my own avenue of machine embroidery appliqué.

As per the company name, many of my first patterns utilized "fabric confetti" to embellish and give a layered effect to the designs. Over time, however, the line has evolved and "fabric confetti" is no longer used in my designs.

I am a Baby Lock Partner and I love teaching machine embroidery both in person and online.
