1 How did you first get introduced to your craft?

Sewing has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My mother was a seamstress and “free motion” embroidery artist starting in the 1950s. I studied pattern drafting and garment construction in college.

2 What type of patterns do you enjoy designing the most?

I love to do things that we use every day. Our motto is “Fun and Practical Patterns that Build Sewing Skills."

3 What are you most known for?

We work hard to make our instructions clear and concise. Every pattern is proofread by many people with different skill levels and illustrated in full color.

4 How do you jump-start your creativity?

Usually my patterns are developed to fill a need. The Quilter’s Wallet came from trying to find the definitive wallet.

5 What inspires you the most?

As a Sulky Freelance National Educator, I am constantly exposed to new ideas and techniques. Sewing and teaching on the road gives me inspiration for developing projects that organize.

6 On average, how many new patterns do you design each year?

Because we strive for quality instructions and illustrations, we publish three to four patterns per year.
