Lynette Forge, owner of Lynette’s Long Arm Quilting

Lynette’s husband Doug was diagnosed with ALS in February 2019, at that time he stated he wanted to work as long as possible as he enjoyed his job and its challenges. Doug was also determined to remain independent and keep a positive outlook.

Shortly after connecting with the ALS Society Doug and Lynette decided they would like to support those who were supporting them.

“I have been teaching quilting since 1988 and I have had the privilege of doing so in Canada, the USA, and England. I sometimes feel we are drowning in quilts, but then along comes another new pattern or idea.

The idea of donating quilts to the society for auction is an easy way to give back to the organization whose support we will continue to need, as this ALS journey continues.”
