_________________________________________________________________
My name is Cheryl and I live in Greenville, South Carolina with my two children (a little boy who is 5 years old and in kindergarten and a little girl who is 3 (and loves playing with my fabrics almost as much as I do)), husband, dog, and a cat. When my daughter was a toddler she needed a quilt for her crib. I had always wanted to try quilting so with the help of hours spent learning through blogs, I made my first quilt and have not stopped quilting since then.
I have a degree in chemical engineering and part time as a patent agent for a private company that makes specialty textiles, chemicals, and carpeting. In my job I work with inventors to figure out what their inventions are, draft patent applications, and then fight to the patents to issue in the US and all around the world. I love math and technical writing which is why I think that drafting quilt patterns is one of the most enjoyable parts of quilting to me. I recently joined the Greenville modern quilt guild and the Foothills traditional quilt guild and am loving having interaction with other quilters and also spend a lot of time reading quilt blogs.
I have an etsy store (www.MeadowMistDesigns.etsy.com) selling my quilt designs and sewing accessories. To celebrate the launch of my newest two patterns I am having a celebration sale. All patterns are on sale for $6 from the normal $8, a 3 pack of patterns is on sale for $15, and I am offering free shipping on all sewing accessories from April 7th-17th.

This is a very nice giveaway! I love this pattern: http://www.etsy.com/listing/119547522/pdf-quilt-pattern-adding-up-nicelycharm?ref=shop_home_feat&favorite_listing_id=119547522&show_panel=true
ReplyDeleteAdding Up Nicely! http://www.etsy.com/listing/119547522/pdf-quilt-pattern-adding-up-nicelycharm?ref=shop_home_active ...although I was torn between that and the paper-pieced numbers set, too. :)
ReplyDeleteI love her Adding Up Nicely pattern. Fab! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI love her patterns, but my eye was caught by the Sewing Accessories Sets http://www.etsy.com/listing/125876448/sewing-accesories-set-sew-stitchy?ref=shop_home_feat. Didn't see patterns for those though! Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteI think my favourite is probably Adding Up Nicely, but I really like the Charming one as well. I think the orange fabric she used in AUN kind of won me over though!
