Welcome to the Circle

I’m so glad you’re here! I’ve been quilting for years and never quite found my “quilt squad”… So I decided to start my own!I began quilting when my husband and I first moved in together. He had just started his career in the military and I was not prepared for military spouse life. Steve worked long hours and I was often by myself. I was in a new city and didn’t have any real friends. Then I received my first sewing machine as a gift. I spent the long evenings cutting fabric and watching Gossip Girl.I learned on my own. I was way too intimidated by the women in the fabric shops to attend a class.All the women seemed to be cut from the same cloth. They were older women who had been quilting for years. They knew terms like ‘stipple’ and ‘feed dogs’. It’s always hard being the new kid, but walking into a room full of people who are the opposite of you in every way? Nope. 23 year old Nicole was not that brave.That feeling is where The Modern Quilters Circle was born from. I love quilting. And I want to share that with other women like me. Women who want to learn to quilt but don’t have someone in their life to show them how to thread a bobbin. Or the women who walked out of their local fabric shop after getting intimidated out of the room by the owner.Through my podcast, Facebook group, and online trainings, I teach women how to cultivate their hobby and get a little ‘me’ time away from the craziness.
