I also love your work. I think your story is very inspiring to all of us inspiring designers/crafters. I love that you made it work so you could stay home with your babies. But it worked for you because you have a real talent and beautiful creations. Thanks for sharing your story.
I’m in love with your wonky quilt and the colors are great, your blog is so wonderful thanks for sharing your creativity!!! I to have a lil man (Camden) who I make things for there are not many cute things for boys out there so you help inspire me to create for him. Thanks so much!!!!!
I’ve not had the pleasure of personally meeting Heather, but have only talked to her in an on-line message board for moms. I have bought a number of things from her for my granddaughters and have not been disappointed once. Congratulations on your growing business and fame, Heather!
Heather’s work is BEAUTIFUL, I have couple applique shirts that she made for my children; they have used them and they have been washed forever, and the shirts are still ok.
Love her work!!
thank you for sharing this story, I’m at a corssraods right now on my 3rd mat leave and want to make a living using my artistic talents. Her story inspires me and reminds me it can be done.
I love Heather’s designs, I have a little girl and definitely will be purchasing! I really enjoyed this feature and learning more about her. Amazing picture of the quilt with the barn in the background!
I have really enjoyed getting to know Heather on twitter and more now on your blog! I hope to meet her in person at your event! Congrats, Heather! You do amazing work!
A great story of starting a business from home to be with the ones you love. I love the fresh designs and fabrics, and the way the quilt looks like a modern take on a classic linen. Great stuff, Heather!
I found Olive and Ollie through Jeff on Facebook. We were in some plays together way back at the Oak Ridge Playhouse. I just wish you were around when my kids were young! Luckily, I have a new nephew on the way, and I am ready to spoil him rotten!
Hello Heather, how adorable and fun, I love the colors. I checked out your website, Etsy shop and Blog and I really like the chenille quilts. It would be awesome to win your drawing!
Oh Heather, you are just amazingly talented. Everything you put your hands on has such a happiness to it and your craftsmanship is truly unsurpassed. This was a great post; love the new photography and the new site looks great too!
You are so right to do all you can to find the time to spend with your kiddos now because they grow up soooo fast, and suddenly the now becomes the past! Oh can I remember the late night put in at the sewing machine, or paper and painting rooms or refinishing furniture. And yes the sleepless night was well worth it!!!! Now those little guys are having their own kiddos and learning first hand the meaning of “a good kind of tired”!!!

You are very creative and do great work, Heather. I envy people who are so creative at sewing. I do papercrafts and many different forms, but always wished that I would have learned to sew.
Fabulous clothing! I wish my kids were small enough to wear them, they grow up too fast I’ve got nephews that can wear them, though!
Have a fabulous day!

Well done Heather I love this site as it brings so many new people to my attention. Being in the UK I cry for great material shops every time I see one I love it’s US and would cost too much to purchase stuff. I love your designs for the children and the appliqu
I agree with Heather – every child should have something homemade! I do that for my grandchildren – Gage and Blayke. I have so much fun making things for them. I love Heather’s fresh new look.

The quilt made for you as a child is incredible!! Very talented family!!
Heather, I loved reading your story and I really admire your work. It is truly beautiful. You are a great mom and your children are just adorable. I wish you much success in all your future endevors!
