Meet Your Quilters!
Kim is a native Minnesotan from Minneapolis, MN with a loving family and thriving home business. Even as a young girl, Kim loved creating things with her hands, and approximately twenty years ago, Kim decided to take up a little hobby of quilting to pass the time. Like every other self-respecting “quilt-a-holic”, it quickly became her passion. Machine quilting was of particular interest to her, as it was just becoming a popular and an acceptable way of quilting your quilt. It is a joy for Kim to make and give hand-stitched gifts to her family and friends.
Kim’s most enthusiastic passion is working with so many talented quilters and designers from around the Twin Cities. Her affiliates at Eagle Creek Quilt Shop, The Blue Bamboo Quilt Shop, Glad Creations Inc., Grubers Quilt Shop, Waconia Sewing Center, G.E. Quilt Designs, and Scribbler Designs inspire her with their creativity and dedication, making her job a joy each and everyday! Kim, Kerry, and the whole KARS Quilting Family work tirelessly in an effort to cover the Minneapolis/St. Paul Metroplex with KARS Quilts!

Kerry Simenson, also a native Minnesotan, built KARS Quilting Services from his home in Chanhassen, MN with his wife Kim (pictured above). His natural inclination toward business coupled with years of experience in management supported the Simenson's entrepreneurial dreams. Kerry's aptitude in hardware and mechanics allowed for a seamless transition as the owner and operator of the Gammill Long-Arm Quilting Machine. His capability for custom design is unmatched all while attending to the finest and most detailed customer requests.
For the past 10 years, he and his wife Kim have participated in many quilt guilds and shows across the United States including features in Better Homes and Gardens: American Patchwork & Quilting Magazine. When Kerry is not busy tending to Quilts, he can most likely be found on the green. A life long avid golfer, Kerry participates in several community golf clubs, leagues, and tournaments. Kerry also enjoys fishing, and spending time with his two grand-sons.
