About Sue Pawlowski
I was bit by the quilting bug about 30 years ago when a friend of mine dragged me kicking and screaming to a quilting class. My earliest quilting influence came from Judy Martin and Debbie Mumm. After 6 years of stitching in the ditch, I bought my first longarm. I have been professionally longarm quilting for over 25 years. Contrary to what some believe I do sleep; I wake up in the morning and look forward to a new quilting challenge. I also enjoy teaching and sharing my knowledge about quilting. I get so excited when I find I have helped form a new quilt addict. I have a fascination with the hexagon and hand piecing. My favorite color is polka dot and my favorite kind of quilt to make is scrappy.
