Welcome to redheadwiththread.com!

The redhead is currently sewing so please visit her etsy shop at threadandneedle.etsy.com. She lives in Chicago and is a true Midwesterner at heart. She learned how to sew in college and made her first quilt by hand on the subways of New York. She was instantly hooked on quilting and fell in love with joining small pieces of fabric together with a thread and needle. One of the reasons she started sewing accessories was that she never wanted to carry the same purse as everyone else or have the same mass produced "stuff" that everyone else purchased at a big box store. Her friends and family kept encouraging her to try to sell her creations to others which is what lead to redheadwiththread.com.

One of her goals is to not make a single thing that she wouldn't use herself. She gets bored making the same thing, so she's yet to make two identical pieces. There is a lot of joy to be found in creating unique details.
