Amie's journey into the world of needle and thread began at an early age when she learned to make garments with dreams of becoming a fashion designer. Later in high school, she made her first quilt as an independent study for art class. Since then, she has honed her sewing and quilting skills through countless classes, conferences, and seminars. In addition to her role as an instructor, Amie is an active member of several quilting and textile art communities. She frequently participates in classes, conferences, sew-alongs and workshops, staying abreast of the latest trends while respecting the timeless traditions of the craft.

Her classes are not just about mastering techniques; they are a celebration of creativity and self-expression.
