Lisa Lueck – Cuddle Ambassador for Shannon Fabrics
Lisa always enjoyed sewing with her Mom when she was young. That aside, her professional aspirations consisted of being a CPA. She did however leave public accounting after five years to follow her dream of owning a chocolate store. After 22 years of making chocolate, she recently gave it all up to pursue her passion of sewing, quilting, and embroidery. She fell in love with Shannon Fabrics over 10 years ago and began to make all things cuddle for her three kids. She currently lives in Zionsville, IN with her kids and husband and is excited about sharing her passion for Cuddle®.
In a Trunk Show Lisa will show us what else we can do with Cuddle/Minky besides back quilts. Lisa is a Sales Rep for Shannon fabrics. They do not normally present to guilds but instead do demos in quilt shops but since she lives in Zionsville and we asked, she will open the doors for us to see many new possible uses for this very popular fabric. We will even see some paper piecing!
