Welcome to my world…..

I’m Linda Lawson.   I’ve been sewing since I was a tweenager and never dreamed I would still be doing what I love at this stage in my life. As a young child in the 60’s, my paternal grandparents owned a beautiful farm in central Tennessee.  My earliest memories of their farmhouse was remembering a crib in a back bedroom my sister and I use to stay in when visiting.   I was the youngest grandchild ,so the crib was no longer needed for its original purpose.  Instead it was filled with folded up quilts my grandmother had made over many years.   She died when I was young and never really was able to know her, but the images of her quilts, overflowing in that crib, have been seared in my memory for a lifetime. 

Throughout the years I’ve always been involved with textiles in some form or another.  I’ve owned  a bridal-wear business, worked in a tailor shop, was a  nationally published interior designer,  an A-1 longarm and Intelliquilter dealer and  presently own a t-shirt quilt business.  My love of design and textiles goes deep and is in my blood.   

 I’ve been writing quilt patterns in my head for a very long time.  I can’t count the many, many quilt designs that have popped out of my head that I’ve turned into quilts over the years.   But recently I took some formal training to learn how to map my ideas into concise steps for the quilt’s construction and this site was formed. I hope you find the perfect quilt pattern here.  

Most of my designs consist of lots of chain-piecing.  I do this intentionally to create a relaxed state of mind when making the quilts.  There’s nothing better than to get lost listening to a good book or music and before you know it, you have a good portion of the quilt finished.  I’m not into making you think lol…  My goal is for every person that buys my patterns to truly have a joyful journey while making their very own masterpiece. Enjoy the journey, Linda
