    I've been living in my RV for 3.5 years since I lost my home in 2017 northern California fires and there hasn't been a day I haven't quilted something. I've been thinking of making videos, soon..... I made 6 quilt tops in the last two months in my RV, and I'll admit its cramped, but I make do. Today I had my jackknife couch removed and now I have so much room! I've got two sewing machines set up, a Juki tl18qvp and a Singer workhorse, a cutting table, a small countertop ironing board, and I pin my quilts on the edge of the slide out to see my work. So far it's working out just fine. Now, if I would just stop buying fabric....no more room for 1 more inch of fabric!

    This was so cute of Jenny and she is very humble. She is just a tad bit more than just a quilter. She runs an entire industry that virtually saved the little town of Hamilton MO.

One CPA (Male in 40s) crocheted his wife the most beautiful sweaters. I envied her so much, cuz I love sweaters & wear w/silk scarves. Men can be better quilters than their wives...eek! (But true) There's a man in Ashville NC who makes beautiful 3D quilts. One day he just decided to give it a try, now he's full of 3D ideas (cubes, mazes, etc). Maybe y'all meet up at the Ashville Quilt Show, where I met them. I'm not in NC now though. I wish y'all safe travels & hope you continue to have fun quilting! Blessings to you & your wife, Lana :)

I set up outside on the picnic table, under a canopy, so I can watch the lake. Extension cords are my friend. I don’t quilt but make garments. I take my Brother sewing machine and this year I will add my serger. I use a light weight folding table for cutting. It is easier than leaning over benches. I could potentially set up inside but I really love being outside unless it is raining. If it is too cold and windy I sit by the fire and read. I love camping.

Thank you for featuring her in your video. I bet you didn't know you stumbled across the holy grail of quilters, Jenny Doan.
