I'm Peggy Gelbrich. I have been contemplating this blog for quite some time, trying to deciding what to say. So here goes......... I am a wife to Ron, for 40 years. I am the Mom of Travis 38, Ian 34 and Allison 29. I am Nannie to Nathan 10, Aidan 8 and Oren 5 months.
I have been a quilter for about 35 years. I have been a quilt teacher for about 25 years, full time in the last ten years. I am the sole proprietor of Yellow House Quilter, http://www.yellowhousequilter.com/. I've been asked, why Yellow House Quilter. In 2002 we moved from Ketchikan, Alaska to Vader, Washington and purchased a large yellow house and that is where my business began...so that is how the name began.
I now live near Yamhill, Oregon where I grew up. My husband and I moved into a new home about a year ago. Our son, Ian, is an architect and designed us a beautiful house that sits on 15 acres, land that I walked on as a kid. I've really come back to my roots.
Teaching quilt making is a true love. Sharing what I've learned with others makes my day. I've been very fortunate to have met and taught many quilters from Alaska to California, Utah and Idaho. Next month I'm headed to Quilt Colorado in Estes Park, Colorado. Can't wait.
We'll I've rambled on; more later. Thanks for reading. Have a wonderful day, hopefully with a few stitches sewn.
