Who's Who in Pieced Together Quilters - Pam Ausmus


Pam Ausmus

Pam started quilting – maybe in 2002 with Kathy in the Thursday afternoon class. Joy remembers that Pam was the first person to introduce herself and welcome Joy to the group.   Pam discovered the San Lorenzo Adult School catalog and thought it would be a great place to meet people. 

After losing Kathy – several ladies met a Panera Bread restaurant (Joan, Katie, and Lorraine Pam, Lilia, and Joy) to encourage each other in quilting. Later they met at Joy’s where they decided to find a larger space to accommodate everyone who wanted to come and not disrupt Joy’s family. (Joy was still homescooling her son). So, Pam was one of the ORIGINAL Pieced Together Quilters.



Her other hobbies are “rock making.”  She is wearing a beautiful blue “fascinated” stone around  her neck. She made Katie a “cab” which is a large rock and she sizes it, polishes it and wraps it to wear as jewelry. She goes to Castro Valley Gem and Mineral Society to learn this craft. The cost is $35 per YEAR! All teachers are volunteers and supplies were donated. Sounds like a fun place to hang out.

A little known fact.  Her husband bought her a new Toyota Avalon without personality. She and her husband painted the wheels black and put pin striping on car. She’d like big wheels, chrome wheels and low profile tires. Just what every hip-hop artist wants!!! But grandma can afford it! However, hubby disapproves.

She is a Christian from Fair Haven Bible Chapel and would love for us to attend church with her. Her husband in an elder, who sometimes preaches and they have been members for 32 years.  You can see Pam assisting Joy with the library and paperwork needs for the group.
