Hello friend!

I’m Allison, and I’m so excited, you’re here!

A few of my favorites:

  • Lattes made by my hubby.

  • Designing quilt patterns.

  • Polka dots.

  • The Oregon Coast.

I learned how to quilt in elementary school from my mama and my nana, on a machine I accidentally dropped on the ground (sorry mama!). Proof that you don’t need a fancy machine to get started quilting, just one that sorta works!

These days you’ll find me designing new patterns and quilting while the kiddos nap.

I’m obsessed with: tacos, polka dots, murals, CliftonStrengths, and a diving deep into conversation over a cup of coffee.

I was born and raised in Iowa and reside in Oregon. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Apparel Merchandising, Design, and Production from Iowa State University, and a Master of Science in Higher Education Administration from The University of Kansas.
