For as long as I can remember I have been making things. I commandeered my mom’s little pink plastic sewing box as a child. I remember cutting out a heart from some gray jersey and making a little ornament for my mom with the ever classic “MOM” on it. My mom gifted me with my first sewing machine when I turned 13. The first thing I made was a snowball blanket. I kept with tradition and gifted my daughter similar supplies when she turned 7.

From then on, I was always making something. I attempted my first quilt when I was 16 with little clue as to what I was doing. I learned to crochet as a teenager from my mom, who learned to crochet from her grandmother. I taught myself to knit in my early 20’s. I’ve embroidered, refinished and upholstered furniture, painted a doll house, and more. I’ll always be working on something.

Thank you for taking some time to get to know me!
