My name is Vicki Olmstead. I’ve been married for 31 years and have 2 kids, ages 26 and 29. I’ve been sewing almost all my life and quilting for about 20 years. I love to work with traditional fabrics..Civil War reproductions and Kansas Troubles are 2 of my favorites. I stay away from applique…we don’t get along well. I’ve been working at O’Susannah’s for about 4 years and thoroughly enjoy it. When I’m not quilting, I like spending my time with family and friends, camping and some DIY home projects.
Sew, O'Susannah! 
I love the bear claw blocks. This would be a great motivator to make a civil war inspired quilt!
