Picture this: I'm working at a fabric store, happily assisting customers when they started asking if I knew any "longarm quilters." I must admit, I was utterly clueless! "Longarm quilter? What's that?" I thought to myself, feeling a little embarrassed about my lack of knowledge. It was high time I educated myself and unraveled the mystery behind these intriguing machines!!

You can imagine the excitement bubbling inside me as I delved deeper into the world of longarm quilting given that the quilting (on my domestic machine) had always been my favourite part of the quilt making process.

A light bulb went off in my head—I needed a longarm quilting machine. After some research, I bought a second-hand Handiquilter machine. I managed to get it set up and little did I know that this decision would open doors to a whole new chapter in my life.

Since venturing into quilting for clients, I've been truly blessed with a continuous stream of quilting projects. What started as a part-time side hustle has flourished into a bustling full-time business, all thanks to the incredible support and trust of my amazing clients. Let me just say this—I have the absolute best job in the world! Working with your beautiful quilts is an honour and I am incredibly grateful for every opportunity.

From that fabric store to where I am now, I couldn't be happier with the twists and turns of this journey. So thank you for joining me on this adventure and here's to countless more quilts and creative endeavours together!

Sending you warm quilting vibes,

Lyndelle xx
