It began when I was old enough to hold a needle. My grandmother and I would spend time in the magical sewing room, making pillows for my doll house. Eventually I was old enough to use the sewing machine. Then the pillows got cleaner, and Barbie had new outfits. I remember many long nights staying up late with my Mom and Grandma. When I was 10 I made these sweet elastic shorts, red, white, and blue with stars. They were great, and super dorky, but I was way proud. I continued to make ridiculous outfits thought high school .During this time, my mom taught me how to draft patterns, and disassemble and repair sewing machines. Happy I learned that now! Then came my first dead show. I was hooked. I'm goin on tour! I quickly learned that money is kinda cool for ya know food and gas and stuff.  I did what I knew best and began sewing clothes for sale! Later down to road came the gig bags. I'm very happy in my piles of projects so when inspiration moves me in any direction I spin there is an outlet to create!
