My name is Theresa Morales and I am addicted to quilting!
U-n-I Quilts, Quilts Made by You & I
In 1987 I was in the local Mall walking by the fabric store, House of Fabrics,
and noticed a Help Wanted sign. Immediately checking my state of dress,
setting it to rights, I walked right in and talked with the Manager. She virtually
hired me on the spot as Assistant Manager! This is where I got my
introduction to quilting... I was 19. During this phase (before the store closed)
I taught intro sewing classes, quilting classes, and creativity abounded when
customers asked it for their various projects.
Since that time I have bought most all the fabric paints Ms Maddux was selling
as an Independent Seller -- and I still have some! Even used on a few quilts,
too! I've also done Ribbon Embroidery, Ribbon Flowers, Cross-Stitch, even
a few stuffed animals and pillows, sewn clothing, played with Polymer Clay
now and then.... and other crafting endeavors.
Now it is almost exclusively Quilts and Quilting. In 2001 Mr. Monk of Florida
set up my Gammill Classic (26") on a 12' table frame. In 2007 my parents
were kind enough to take a trip down to West Plains, MO for a weekend and
drop off the Gammill machine head to be Retro-Fitted with a stitch-regulator!
Before, there was learning to keep the stitches relatively even through-out a
quilt; Now the machine does it for me! Makes for much simpler outlining and
ditching.
