About The Patchwork Rooster
A quilter first,
then a longarmer.
What began as years of piecing quilts grew into a busy longarm quilting studio serving local and mail-in customers.
How it started
I had been piecing quilts for years when, in 2017, I finally decided to purchase a computerized Gammill longarm and learn to quilt them too. Once I got comfortable with it, I began quilting for friends and then for customers.
By late 2026, I’ve worked on more than 2,000 quilts, ranging from simple edge-to-edge designs to fully custom quilting. Demand grew enough that I added a second Gammill longarm so I could keep the typical turnaround to about two or three weeks.
The part I enjoy most
I love helping customers choose quilting patterns and thread colors that suit the quilt and make the piecing stand out. Sometimes customers hand me the quilt and say, “Do what you want,” which is always fun.
I accept quilts by mail, and many local customers call ahead to arrange a time to stop by. There are thousands of patterns and plenty of thread colors to choose from.
