The "Rock Star" quilter who said, "I wanted a 100 percent women-owned business supported by women, an art space for people to walk in and feel super creative." is longarm quilter extraordinaire, Karen McTavish. 

She opened her studio between the Benchmark Tattoo & Gallery and The Snooty Fox Tea Shop and knew she wanted to move in even when it still had dirt floors.  A year later the floors are covered with colorful carpets and quilting machines are available for rent.
 
She won't tell you she is famous, but you probably have heard of her work.  She developed a wavy quilting stitch to resemble Super Woman's hair, we call it "McTavishing".
