Welcome to Splendid Stitches! Quilt Finishing Services Are you looking for someone to harmoniously enhance your fabric pieced work of art? Add the finishing touch of a hand-guided longarm quilting machine to your masterpiece. Or have a custom quilt created for your special occasion. Meet the Artist I am Aimee Mahan (formally Simmons) and recently re-located to Omaha, Nebraska. I have an interior design background and love applying the principles of balance, scale and rhythm to quilting. It is a joy to see how color and pattern become alive, at times with surprising results! I enjoy both traditional and innovative quilting and hope I can enhance your artistry with a custom drawing from the needle of my hand guided longarm quilting machine.
