Meet LeAnn - Your Quilt Maker and Seamstress Near Me!
Hello! I'm LeAnn Hill, the owner of A Quilting Creation and a longarm quilter with over 30 years of experience in
quilting. I have a passion for creating beautiful quilts and helping others bring their quilting visions to life as a
professional quilter near me in Utah.
I began my quilting journey in 1993, inspired by my twin aunts who had been freehand quilting for 30 years. Their
beautiful quilts captivated me, and I was eager to learn. Despite my persistent requests for lessons, their advice was
always the same: "Just take a class."
My first project was a housedress pattern quilt. Although challenging for a beginner, I persevered and completed it after
a year. I entered it in the Salt Lake County Fair and won 2nd place in the amateur division. This achievement encouraged
me to continue quilting.
Over the years, I have created numerous quilts and table runners, many of which have been entered in the Fair, given away
as gifts, or sold. I have also made specialized quilts for family, friends, neighbors, baby showers, weddings, and all
kinds of occasions and holidays.
There really doesn't need to be a reason to make a quilt. For instance, my sister once asked if she could have one of the
table runners I made. When I asked her why, she said, "when I look at it, it makes me happy!"
That is the why of quilting!! It does my heart good to provide warmth, beauty, and happiness to those who receive them.
My motto is, "A quilt’s beauty is measured in love, not stitches."
Happy Quilting from Your Local Quilt Maker Near Me!
