Acorn Ridge Quilting was started due to a love of quilts.  I have been making quilts since the early 1970's. I am descended from a long line of quilters. My great-grandmother (1854-1939) immigrated from Germany and brought her quilting skills, passing them down to my grandmother, then to my mother and then to me. I in turn have passed those skills on down to my two children, Travis and Rachel and on down to my two grandchildren, Elizabeth and Alexandria.
