Blinn Bolcar-Lunsford is a professional longarm quilter and designer based in Lake Jackson, Texas.

About Me

Retiring after almost 45 years of nursing, the last 16 as a nurse practitioner, I discovered I love the longarm quilting process and have been doing it for family, friends, and for charity.

I learned to sew in a middle school Home Economics class on my mother’s featherweight Singer sewing machine and have been sewing on and off for the past 60 years. In the beginning I made clothes, coats, hats, accessories. In 1996 after a sewing hiatus, I revived and augmented my sewing skills with home décor, machine embroidery, machine appliqué.

Then I pieced my first quilt and attempted to quilt it on a sewing machine. Shortly after, I bought my first quilting short arm (16” throat) machine and frame. A succession of upgrades of machines, frames, and quilting software followed to what I have now. While I enjoy designing and piecing together my quilts, I love the process of designing and quilting with my longarm more!

I will work with you to create a design plan that will compliment your quilt and fit your budget.

I’ve been longarm quilting for friends, family, and for charity for the past twenty-five years. I love the process of designing the quilting to suit the pieced quilt.
