It all started on a beautiful farm in Iowa when we were about ten years old. We were bit by the entrepreneur bug. We started our sweet corn business with a few dozen ears of sweet corn, a red radio flyer wagon and two small paper signs that said "$1 per dozen!" "Sweet corn for sale!"

Our love for quilting came from our mother. One of our favorite sounds is hearing Gingher scissors cut out fabric on the kitchen table. Our mother was a fantastic seamstress long before she became an outstanding quilter. When we were in high school, Mom patiently taught us how to piece together our first quilt. Susan chose a two-color Irish Chain and Sarah chose a scrappy log cabin. Through the years we have enjoyed exploring all kinds of different types of patterns. With new inspiration from Sarah's quilt shop and Susan's profession as a graphic designer, we have started to design our own patterns together.
