Hello everyone!
My name is LaRayne Woodward and I am a true Tillamook County citizen. I was born in Nehalem and have lived there all my life. My husband and I had a dairy farm and raised five children. I took up sewing in the early years and decided that it was time to start making the quilts I admired. With all the sewing that I had done it would be a shoo-in to make quilts, right? Wrong. I had to learn a whole new skill, and it took a while. I started quilting in the late 1970's and I can't say how many years it took for me to get good at making quilts.
These last 10 years or so I have come to admire two quilt designers. One is Kim Diehl of the US, and the other is Jen Kingwell from Australia. I find their designs exciting to make especially Jen Kingwells as they have a lot of hand-work and piecing by hand. I hope those who come to visit the Latimer will enjoy the quilts that will be on display.
