We are a mother and daughter team dedicated to designing quilts for quilters with confidant beginner to intermediate skills. Mother's background is in sewing and textiles and she's been quilting for over 30 years. Daughter's education is in literature and business. She's been more recently seduced by fabric and design. We have a special fondness for Halloween, but any holiday or occasion (or none at all) is a good excuse for a quilt.

Why Mother on a Broomstick?  Because everyone has had one, been one or seen one in action, if only for a moment. 

We live in the beautiful Northwest, love travel, quilts and poodles. The photo at right is Toby, Mother's familiar who asks you to email Mother and tell her he should be able to make a bed of quilts just for him. Daughter's familiar is featured on our Gallery page.

We hope you'll try our patterns and send us pictures of the results so we can post them on our Gallery page.
