About Violet Craft

Hello! I'm Violet Craft. I am a licensed illustrator and designer. I manufacture and distribute my own line of sewing patterns, notions and gifts, but mostly I am a momma, a wife, a friend and a maker. I was born in the Old West where I pursued my education in business and finance. The start of my career in software development brought me to the Pacific Northwest where I bagged my man, feathered my nest and stitched it all together. Drawn to art, craft and make-ing, the birth of my first daughter compelled me to ditch my corporate career and seek out my passion. My children's apparel line reached boutiques in 2004. My first fabric collection debuted in Spring 2011 along with the first Violet Craft sewing patterns. I teach sewing and design workshops which are often influenced by my awesomely nerdy former career.Read their story
