| Hello and welcome to my "Me" page!! Glad you stopped by!
I have been sewing all my life. My mom taught me how to stitch on doilies and table runners when I was a kid. Everytime I had enough money saved, I would go down to the local 5 and 10 store and instead of buying candy, I would buy pillow cases or table runners and floss so I could stitch! When I got older, I started making some of my own clothes, then when I had my daughter, I sewed cute little clothes for her. When she went off to Kindergarten, I needed something to do and found my sewing all over again, but in a smaller form. I always went to craft shows and would say, I could do that and I finally sat down and did. My first dollies were Raggedy Ann's, mostly because my daughter was a red-head and it just snowballed from there. At my height, I was doing three craft shows a year, plus sewing for three different gift shops and doing Ebay. I got burnt out and tired and said enough is enough and started to concentrate on doing mostly One of A Kind Dolls online. I tried to quit several times because I eventually had to work outside of the home, but found I couldn't leave the fabric and the creativity alone. Besides raising my daughter, it's the best job I ever had. I just love it that much.
I started my own pattern line in 2005 and look forward to creating many patterns for years to come. I enjoy every aspect of sewing, from designing, painting, sewing and so on. I get excited everytime I finish a new piece and can offer it to you. I have met so many nice folks along the way and have been given so many great opportunities. I try to keep some new things on my blogs, Primsical Studios or Kathy's Prims and it is only one of two places where you can find my patterns!!
Hope you get a chance to stop by and check out my pages!!!!
Something new and exciting for Kathy's Prims in 2009 is an article and pattern in the April issue of Doll Crafter and Costuming Magazine. Also look for patterns in the 2009 August and Holiday issues of Create & Decorate Magazine. I was thrilled to be asked to contribute to two such wonderful outlets for crafters and home decorators!
Some hobbies I enjoy other than sewing are going antiquing, gardening, reading historical non-fiction and being with my family. I give all the glory to God for making my life Blessed with a wonderful family and talent. Thanks for taking time out of your day to read about "Me" and never hesitate to contact me!! I enjoy hearing from you!! Kathy
