AS A PATTERN TESTER:

What inspired you to start testing patterns for the Fandom in Stitches community?
"I was thrilled when I discovered the FIS website and found it exciting to test such motifs."

What was your first tested Fandom pattern?

"Don't know , but I think it was Panic from Laura Shaffstall"

Do you have a designer you test for the most?"Yes, Jennifer Larimore!"

What's your favorite kind of pattern to test?"I like a lot of motifs, but I especially like animals. I really enjoyed the Jungle Book motifs. And the Madagascar motifs, for which I had made an inquiry, were particularly great."

What kind of non-fandom projects do you like to work on?"I'm always trying to learn new things and techniques. I like challenging, large FPP designs with tiny parts, like my Tutankhamun or the flamingos from Legitkits. If time permits, I also like to take part in BOM. For example the Gardeners Wife QAL by Quiltartdesign or the BOM by Nationalquiltmuseum."

AS A PATTERN TESTER:

What inspired you to start testing patterns for the Fandom in Stitches community?
"I needed more of a challenge. I have been quilting since I was 15, and really starting hitting a rut with the typical patterns that you would find in a magazine or book."

What was your first tested Fandom pattern?

"That was so long ago! One of the first handful I ended up doing was Merida by Michelle Thompson."

Do you have a designer you test for the most?"It would have to be either Holly U. or Kathleen B."

What's your favorite kind of pattern to test?"I love a pattern than I’m actually interested and can eventually turn the blocks in a full sized quilt. I dislike having a ton of orphaned blocks hanging around. Difficulty isn’t an issue, I love a challenge and I also love having a breather."

What kind of non-fandom projects do you like to work on?"T-shirt quilts and memory bears are a favorite! Taking someone’s precision memories and turning it into a timeless treasure is probably the best feeling!"

What else would you like to share?"I love having the opportunity to throw ideas at designers and seeing a whole project come together, it’s amazing! Even if it means designing 4 more blocks and adding a Title for the particular fandom! "
