About Me

Hello and welcome! 

Pickens County Mercantile and The Crazy Bear Quilter!

My name is Toni and am a creator of quilts and longarm quilting services.  

I grew up around sewing as my grandmother was an avid seamstress and artist.  I spent many years making quilts and quality heirloom crafts for shows, family and friends. 

After 20+ years in the corporate world, I decided it was time to live my dream and explore my passion.  With that in mind, I took early retirement, sold my home and moved to the North Georgia Mountains to live my dream.   My dream was to explore my creativity.  After many years of being a shop owner,  I decided that my passion was Longarm quilting.  

Currently, I do professional Longarm Quilting from my home studio and create custom and t-shirt quilts for customers.  

I pour my heart and soul into every project whether it be quilting your quilt top or creating a new quilt for you.  

Please reach out for your needs.

Quilting is my passion and I would love to create something beautiful for you! ~ Toni
