Featured Artist: Shannon L.
Meet Shannon, the best handmade doll maker around! Shannon was taught to sew by both of her Grandmothers. They sewed many of her school clothes, and she credits them for all that she knows about sewing. In college, she started making quilts for her friends and family. A few years ago, her sister asked her to make a doll for her niece, and thus, her dolls and creatures were born. Both her niece and nephew love to test out her new creations!
She says, "I absolutely love crafting each handmade item, especially putting together all of the different fabrics and colors. There are so many great fabrics and materials to create new and exciting items."
Her most popular creation is her Miss Madi doll. This doll can be customized to look just like your very own child. She loves all of the different variations of Miss Madi.
Shannon loves to give back to her community. She donates many quilts and baby items to pregnancy centers in and around her area. Shannon is top-notch and such a joy to work with. We love her kindness and her impeccable work. See all of Shannon's work in the Featured Section on our site!

Meet Jamilyn, the most ingenious embroider in the South! Jamilyn began sewing at a very young age and created pillows, blankets and dresses for her stuffed animals and dolls. She purchased her first embroidery machine five years ago and is self taught in skill and technique. She reads online tips and manuals to stay current with trends and practices, and says that she is not afraid to try new things.
"When something doesn't turn out how I want it to, I try again! I love getting new ideas from the Internet, stores, etc."
On her biggest accomplishment, Jamilyn says that in one Christmas season alone she embroidered 160 make-up bags. Wow!
"I don't think I have one best or favorite creation; I love new designs that I can add to my portfolio and I have fun with requests and suggestions from customers."
That's our cue! She loves custom orders and is up for the challenge. See all of Jamilyn's work on The Sweetest Stitch in the featured item section.

The Art of Quilling
Designs by Leigh Ann from New Jersey |
Ever wonder about Quilling? Here’s the scoop!
Quilling involves creating objects by rolling, and shaping strips of paper. The paper is
coiled around a quill to create leaves, flowers and other ornamental shapes and is held into place by glue.
Quilling is often used for scrapbooking embellishments and décor.
Leigh Ann is a master quiller and can create almost any object. See all of Leigh Ann’s
work at www.sweeteststitch.com

Laura |
Meet Laura,
She has a love of crafting and scrapbooking, but her love story with creating began long ago. She stated, " I have been crafting for many years but started scrapbooking when my daughter was born 7 years ago. I wanted to create something special and lasting with her pictures." And with that, her dream of handcrafted art boxes was born.
When asked how she came about making these great and unique pieces of art, Laura said, "Trial and error! My first pages were awful but I kept them anyway, and as time went by, I got better. I looked at the magazines and the tools available at the stores to determine what I might like to try. Over time I have found what I like and usually stick with it." We love her honesty as we all have crafts that we would like to do over.
Laura's favorite work is creating nursery art boxes. "I like to make nursery art boxes because first, babies especially, are important to me. I went through a great deal of pain and emotional pain just to conceive and my daughter truly is a miracle. So many things could have gone wrong even with my pregnancy, but God kept us both safe. So, when I know of a mom who has struggled, I love to make her child something special for his or her room. It brings back the joy I had when my daughter was born, each time I make an art box for someone else."
We think Laura is the best around! Check out all of her work in the featured section on our site.

Featured Artist: Shannon

Her greatest accomplishment is seeing little girls wear her product. Shannon says, "It is the best feeling in the world! Nothing is more of a compliment or makes me feel more accomplished than that." Shannon has vowed to make the world beautiful one girl at a time! We think she's off to a great start. See all of Shannon's work on The Sweetest Stitch!
Meet Shannon, queen of bling! Shannon began making items for little girls five years ago, and says she has always loved fancy and frilly things. She says, "I don't have little girls of my own, so making things for the little princesses out there is how I get my 'girl fix' in. Everytime I see a little girl dressed up in my product, it puts a smile on my face."
Shannon learned the basics of handcrafting from her father and grandmother, and says that she has taken away the ability to create by teaching herself what she does not know. "I get a vision in my head and put it to work until I get it right!"

Nicole |
Meet Nicole, mother of two and card creating machine! Nicole has a background in Interior Design and loves mixing and matching papers, patterns, textures and colors. She is self taught and says, "I've been handcrafting items for as long as I can remember! I chose to focus on card-making as I love finding new, amazing papers."
She believes that hand-written correspondence is still relevant. She says," I think that taking the time to sit down and *write* to someone is becoming a lost art, so it was important for me to encourage people to send thank you notes, anniversary cards, etc.
Her greatest accomplishments are her two precious daughters, age 22 months and 5 months. We are impressed she even has time to create! Check out all of Nicole's work in the featured section on The Sweetest Stitch!
