About Us

Welcome to The Uncommon Quilt Co.  So you want to know about us?  I'm flattered!  All this began when I decided to teach my 7 year old to start piecing a scrap quilt over the summer.  We had a glorious time sewing together leftover scrap fabric willy-nilly. Well, we had such a good time, our quilt ended up being an oversized king with no practical way to quilt it on our own.  Enter stage right, the Long Arm Quilter named Brutus!  I always knew there were Long Arm Quilting machines out there, but I've been a hand quilter since the day my grandmother started me out with red thread on a quilt she pieced and loaded on the homemade quilt frames I'd crawled under since before I could remember.  I didn't know if I could "allow" a machine to do the job that the hands of so many of my family members have done for generations; however, like with so many things, lack of time and attractive new technology drew me in and definitely enhanced my craft.  So, I became a long arm quilter!  Brutus has helped to make my uncommon quilting ideas a reality and if you're a quilter, you know that a finished oversized king size quilt to snuggle your family under is much better than the pile of scraps you started with. Brutus and I would be honored to help you finish your quilt or learn your story and create something unique and special for your own snuggling purposes.
