When Ashley received her first combination sewing and embroidery machine as a gift from her mom, she found her new passion and her new career! Ashley is also intrigued by longarm quilting on her Regalia and using Pro-Stitcher software to customize quilts. In addition to Quilting, Ashley's sweet spot is embroidery and her many designs and projects can be seen on her Facebook page. She can be seen helping out in Baby Lock Consumer Getaways, assisting with content and absorbing new techniques and tips from other Baby Lock Training and Education team mates.

In addition to being a Baby Lock Educator, Ashley also has a Longarm Quilting and Embroidery business, Dogwood Trail Quilt company.
