My name is Kathryn Hecker and I live in New Ipswich, New Hampshire. I've had an ongoing love affair with sewing since I was in elementary school. Over the years I have tried almost every craft out there, but I especially loved doing needle crafts. Knitting, crocheting and embroidery are among my passions, but more than anything I love hand stitching. My desire to find something that I could turn i
nto a profitable business finally blossomed in the form of my whimsical penny rugs. I started selling my completed designs on Ebay, but found it hard to keep up with the demand. Then after many requests for patterns I decided to give that a try. I love creating new designs and have no intention of stopping any time soon! I recently retired from my job working in an elementary school and can now devote all of my free time to designing. There is something for every season in my line and they are so easy to create! Try one and you'll definitely be hooked!
