An early childhood educator turned Riley Blake Designs fabric designer. I'm a doll, quilt and craft pattern designer, a mother of four, and the founder of Sew A Story.
My creative journey began in a place you might not expect. I trained to be a professional ballet dancer, spending hours every day training in the studio. However, behind the stage, I found myself captivated by something else entirely: the costume wardrobe.
I was drawn to the artistry of the fabrics, the transformation we as dancers felt when we wore these handmade costumes, and the stories that were created when we danced in those costumes without ever speaking a single word. It was there, learning to sew ribbons on pointe shoes and mend bodices, that I discovered my love for sewing and storytelling through fabric!
