She is known for the tools she has created that are designed to be used by quilters who would like to increase their piecing skills and proficiency. The Tucker Trimmer line of rulers are fast becoming a must have in every quilter's tool kit and the accompanying pattern s for all of my tools continue to excite new and veteran quilters alike.

See Deb's Website for more information about her. Registration Form available here.

Thurs Aug 26 class, "Atlantic Flyway". Supply list here. Deb will be teaching this class using her original design to demonstrate several of her unique and timesaving tools.

Sat Aug 28 class, "New Year's Star". Supply list here. Looking for a bit of a challenge? This may be the project for you. This quilt was designed to cover a number of various construction techniques and gadgets. Truly a spectacular design that requires just three fabrics.
