Hi, I’m Katy!

And I like to sew. And craft, and take photos. I also teach math and colorguard, like to hang out with my family, and sit on the sofa with my phone scrolling through social media, but I’m guessing that’s not why you’re here…

I recently closed a small shop I had been operating for several years. While bittersweet, I know it was the right thing to do. My enjoyment of sewing has evolved into a passion for trying new patterns, exploring different fabrics, and is now supplemented by sewing with and for several pattern designers and fabric suppliers through pattern testing and strike off sewing.

As I grow as a sewist and photographer, I invite you to come on this adventure with me. So, welcome to What Katy Makes.
