Mandy has been an avid patchwork- and quilter for the past 11 years. She has dabbled in dressmaking, decoupage, bisc-painting, fabric-painting, scrap booking and many other handcrafts - Patchwork & Quilting remains her favourite.
She enjoys challenges - tackling new quilting projects, trying different patchwork methods - and generally, the sharing of ideas and the interaction with other quilters who share her passion for the craft.
At any given time, Mandy is busy working on more than one quilt, as well as some other handcraft project(/s). She has designed a quilt for just about all her family members.
Mandy has always dreamed of opening her own craft shop and enjoys teaching and tutoring others - The Quilting Bug has now allowed her to combine her passions and realise her dream.
She lives with her husband and daughter Jess, and two spoilt dogs - Churchill and Missy.
