It' simple.... I just love to SEW - creatively, that is.
A little about me...
After obtaining my B.S. in Home Economics from the University of Illinois, I worked in interior design, then managed a craft store - and along the way started to offer dressmaking as a way to sell more of the fabric I was selling from my home through Leiter's Designer Fabrics and House of Laird fabrics.
All of that led to publishing my own line of patterns featuring heirloom sewing for women in the late 80's. From there, 1990 found me opening my own fabric store/sewing machine dealership in 1990. Thirteen years later, I decided to 'come home again' - to live the normal life of a non-retail storefront owner, opting for the internet mode of retailing instead.
I now offer my 'cherry-picked" top quality needle art-related products worldwide through this website -condensed in early 2009 from 5 more narrowly-defined websites.
Along the way, realizing fashion was morphing into a very casual style, I have developed a love for creating very stylish jackets from top quality, comfy sweatshirts. The compliment I hear over and over is "I can't BELIEVE that is a sweatshirt!" To me - a sweatshirt is nothing but fabric and matching ribbing - and very comfy fabric at that!
My next direction is Fabulous Tops &T's...watch for this exciting new direction in Spring of 2012!
I've published my designs and techniques in a CD, then a DVD, printed book, and patterns. Oddly enough, I almost love to write and record directions as much as I do creating my looks in the first place!
Now I also stay 'hopping' as I travel the country to vend and teach at various sewing expos, sharing my 'Creative Sweatshirt Jacket' techniques.
Above all, I love most to teach and share my designs and the techniques I've developed. I strive to do that and to offer top quality sewing products with friendly, honest, 'old-fashioned' personal service. My customers are my friends - and I LOVE to chat with you!!! With any question regarding sewing, my products, etc. I encourage you to give me a call...

Now.....have fun shopping, then go control your life in.... YOUR sewing room!
