Hello I'm Lisa, I'm a stay at homeschooling mom to my two kiddos. I live in Northern California with my husband of 16 years.

Since then I have been obsessed with sewing children's clothing.
Rachel Ring
Hi! I’m Rachel and I’m excited to be joining the Pattern Revolution team. I am a native East Coast-er, having returned to the wilds of New Jersey with my husband and two (fun and exhausting) kids after 7 years in New York City. I’m a lifelong crafter and ran a handcrafted jewelry business for about 8 years. I fared miserably in middle school home ec, though, and was convinced for years that sewing was not for me. My parents bought me a sewing machine for my 31st birthday and the rest was history. I love knits, upcycling, and vintage buttons; dislikes include cleaning my sewing space and taping pdf patterns. Nowadays I sew mainly for my kids – a girl who loves bright colors and a boy who loves anything with a car on it – but I’ve been working on my own handmade wardrobe lately too.

She lives on a boat with her husband and one adorable miniature schnauzer.
Merav Ruthman
Hello! My name is Merav and I am so happy to be a blogger here at Pattern Revolution. I have been sewing children patterns for over three years and I love manipulating fabrics into everyday-wear and one of a kind designs. I am a self taught seamstress, with a huge of love for PDF patterns.
My company, Baby Hobbes Design was created for my daughter Haley, nicknamed Hobbes-she came second to our now 10 year old Calvin-the Beagle pup. Hobbes is my inspiration for all of my creations. We often choose fabrics together and discuss pattern placement. I love designing and watching her develop her own almost 7 year old style. I also dabble in boy clothing for my almost 3 year old son Liam and hoping to move into woman's wear in 2017.

Keep sewing!

Rebecca Wilkerson
I’m a wife and mother to three young children. My husband has been making my dreams come true since we got married. My mom taught me to sew when I was a child and confesses she was often mad at me because I would be sewing when she wanted her machine. When our youngest was 9 months old my husband bought me a sewing machine and that is when my sewing skills took off. I rarely sew fall and winter clothes for my kids because I spend all early fall sewing coordinating Halloween costumes for the whole family.

I’m Kimberlee, wife to my best friend, Matt, and mother to my precious daughters, Brylee and Lydia. Together as a family we enjoy gardening, hiking, camping, board games (I can rock some Battleship and Yahtzee!), and bike riding. We are also really involved in our church and actively minister and do life with our Junior High group.

I started Harper Creek Boutique in April of 2013, and fell even more in love with sewing after having my first daughter later that year. I am a big fan of bright colors, ruffles, bows, and anything to add that girly touch.

Hi :) I'm Weatherly and I'm so excited to be a part of Pattern Revolution! I'm originally from Kansas but my high school sweet heart hubby and I now live in Louisiana with our daughter. After my daughter was born I was bound and determined to learn how to sew even though I was TERRIFIED of the machine!! One lesson, picking the brains of some great seamstresses I met online, and a whole lot of YouTube later, I'm here today with my little boutique business, pattern testing, and blogging! When I get a little break I enjoy sewing for myself too :)

Mac is a wife and mom of one preschool daughter and a toddler son (which keeps her unbelievably busy), but in her (limited) spare time, she likes to hide in her sewing cave and work until she's created something awesome! Mac picked up her first sewing machine in mid-2015, taught herself to sew through YouTube, PDF pattern tutorials, Facebook Sewing Groups and Craftsy tutorials — and hasn't gone a week without putting in work to improve in her craft.
