About Me
Hello, I'm Becky, founder of Sewforever Quilting.
My patterns and products make complicated, time-consuming quilting techniques doable — helping you build confidence and make the most of your creative time.
How it started
From the moment I discovered quilting, I was hooked. I loved the process of creating something both practical and beautiful, and the sense of accomplishment that came with it.
Then I came across a stunning appliqué quilt pattern and knew I had to master it — no matter how intimidating it seemed. But the learning curve was steep. I struggled to get my appliqué precise, and I started to wonder if I'd ever produce results I was truly proud of.
That's when it occurred to me: the traditional method might not be the only way.
I broke from tradition and spent months experimenting until I found an approach that delivered precise results with far less difficulty. That became Innovative Appliqué — no tracing, no needle-turning, no cutting freezer paper from the back of your work. Just clean, confident results without years of practice.
The same question led me further
After developing Innovative Appliqué, I kept asking myself: what other technique can I make more accessible?
That question led me to English Paper Piecing. Traditional EPP is beautiful, but the process — basting, gluing, whip-stitching, and pulling papers at the end — takes an enormous amount of time. I knew there had to be a better way.
English Paper Piecing Made Easy uses self-stick templates that let you skip all of that. Simply move the sticker from shape to shape and stitch by hand or machine using a straight stitch. The templates are reusable 5 to 10 times or more, and your project comes together far more easily than you'd expect.
Seen and published
Sewforever Quilting has been featured on Missouri Quilt Co. and Quilting Arts TV (Series 1600), and published by the American Quilter's Society in Holly Jolly Ornamental Appliqué and Plant Your Own Garden.
