I’m Kirstin, but you can call me Kiki since it’s easier to pronounce :) I’m a surface designer living near Rochester, NY with my husband, two kiddos, & one pup!

I’ve always been drawn to beautiful patterns, and spent many years pouring my heart into a handmade business sewing bags & accessories. Truthfully, I knew for a while that that business had run its course, but I held on because I didn’t want to give up working with the colorful fabrics that brought me so much joy. I dabbled in a couple other hand-sewn product businesses, including eco-friendly reusable snack bags & bows, but nothing ever felt like the right fit for me. Fast forward a few years, I realized that I could shift my role from the person working with the patterns, into the person making the patterns.

I love creating joyful patterns that are full of color and child-like wonder. I am very inspired by my kids, 5 and 2 years old, who are a constant reminder to look for joy in unexpected places.
