Welcome to Creative BiTS

And Welcome to my Website!

You all know that patchwork and quilting is more than sewing together pieces of fabric. Creative design in my mind originates from working with shapes, colors and patterns that make the quilts come alive.

No big wonder then, that I'm constantly fascinated by the truly mind-boggling possibilities in creating new designs - and that new ideas crop up all the time.

Enter Longarm Quilting. After struggling with several queen-size bed quilts on my Bernina, I thought it was time to do things right. Seeing the APQS Millennium at several quilt shows (Carrefour Europ�en du Patchwork at Ste. Marie aux Mines) and fairs made me examine APQS a little closer. As you can see on the picture, I can now call an APQS Millennium my own. The Longarm Quilts Gallery contains pictures of some of the finished customer quilts and will be expanded as I go along. In my Webshots photo albums you find more samples of my customer quilts and my own creations. Since I am constantly uploading new pictures, you might want to check back often ;-)...

I'm quite proud of the fact that I can report about two international awards my work has won me. FOr details about these awards and for pictures of the winning quilts, see the Contests page.

On my website, I would like to encourage you to join me in exploring my designs and the joy that patchwork and quilting as a creative and truly remarkable art form is instilling. Be warned, though: as many of you know, the quilting virus is a life-long affliction...

Have fun,
Birgit
