“The patterns of our lives have the capacity to connect deeply within us. They are simple expressions of our joy.”
I grew up snuggled back in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina, where my love for patterns started a very long time ago. I spent countless afternoons at my mom’s creative quilt shop, sewing, crafting and falling in love with fabric. A childhood spent with hands in my mother’s fabric stashes quickly turned into dreams of designing my own fabrics.
My husband and I spent a few years tucked away in a little vine-covered cottage on the central coast of California, but quickly returned to our roots. Now, a decade later, we are so happy to be nestled in the beautiful Smokey Mountains once again, where we’re raising our two children.
I am mostly inspired by the great outdoors, from the largest of trees to the tiniest of leaves. Creating patterns with summery sweet hues is my happy place. I thrive on botanical gardens, sunshiney days, and nature walks- camera in one hand, sketchbook in the other. My goal has always been to create patterns that are organic and natural, joyful and lovely.
I believe patterns are one of the ways that we can express ourselves and make our spaces beautiful. I love to weave parts of my life into each one of them, making the design process and end results very personal and meaningful.
