Marlene (Baerg) Oddie is an engineer by education, a financial services systems professional by experience, a project manager by profession, and a quilter by passion. She believes in the KISS method and has incorporated this into her company name. I think Marlene was so wise when she first started quilting on her new longarm.

Lori DeJarnatt loves the way quiltmakers made do with what they had. They didn't use fancy tools or the latest gadgets, but boy could they create treasures! She says even when the points were chopped off and the borders didn't meet exactly where they hoped they would, these quilts have stood the test of time for being practical and beautiful. Lori calls them Humble Quilts. And it’s these quilts that she had named her business after. I especially enjoyed Lori’s giving spirit as we chatted. Here's
