Meet the Maker
Hi, and welcome to my shop! I'm Shannon and I've been designing patterns since 2012. What started as a mystery quilt to raise money for a charity walk turned into a whole thing for me! I am a quilter, machine embroiderer, sewist of various things (pretty much anything except clothes), and crafter of anything that strikes my fancy at the time. Oh, and by day I'm an electrical engineer.
I design mostly quilt patterns, but I'm hoping to branch out into some embroidery files soon!
I've been married for 20 years, and we have two children (our 18 year old son is a sailor, and our 13 year old son is finishing up middle school). We also have 2 dogs, a whole clowder of cats, and a bearded dragon. We live in the boonies.
