Terry has been quilting for over 30 years. He started with very traditional techniques (hand piecing, hand applique, and hand quilting), then transitioned to machine art quilts. He eventually achieved all the criteria to be in the Master’s category for quilt show entries.

In 2006, he was invited to participate in a national exhibit titled “Men of Biblical Proportion” that traveled the country from 2005-2007.

In 2009, he was invited to participate in Quilt Mania II, in an exhibit titled “Men of Biblical Proportion,” which traveled the country from 2005 to 2007.

In 2009, he participated in Quilt Mania II, in an exhibit titled “Men of the Cloth in Dallas, along with three other male quilters.

In 2015, he and his wife were featured in the French publication, Cronique Patchwork. Eventually, he returned to his traditional roots and started a 26-month journey to create the English paper pieced millefiori quilt pattern by Katja Marek.

In 2018, it was in the Millefiori Special Exhibit at the Texas Quilt Museum in LaGrange, Texas, featuring twelve millefiori quilts from quilters around the country.
