Spokane, WA — Artist Debbie Mumm has expanded her partnership with licensee PHI, formerly Peking Handicraft Inc., to include several new product categories, with quilts being the emphasis.

Franco Mfg., Mumm's licensee for bedding, had also been supplying quilts until the three parties came to a new agreement. Franco will continue to produce Mumm's bedding collections.

"PHI is one of the top quilt manufacturers, and its customer base is department and specialty stores — more the type of retailers we want to pursue with these quilts," Jeanne Chouteau-Adams, director of marketing, Debbie Mumm Inc., told HTT.
