About Me

Sewing kind of found me by accident. I never knew I had a passion for it until my husband bought me my first sewing machine for Christmas, 2009.

It started with an eye for refashioning clothing, to re-creating some of my favorite pieces from places like {Anthropologie, H&M}, to developing my own designs. In January, 2011, I decided to open up my own etsy shop, Shannon Sorensen Designs to make and sell the things I love and a few years later, Fairface™ Washcloths on etsy and on the web.

I absolutely love to sew and create. There is such sweet satisfaction seeing my designs come to life. I'm in love with ruffles, polka dots, satin, minky fabrics, texture, the natural look of muslin, the sparkle of sequins, the delicate touch of chiffon, the snuggle of fleece, the softness of flannel, and so much more.

It has been fun creating some exclusive products to Shannon Sorensen Designs like Fairface™ Washcloths for gently cleansing ultra-sensitive faces (like me!); & an oldie but goodie, the earth-friendly solution for one of life's simple problems: the Shaving Cream Cozy, eliminating rust rings in your shower.

I had loads of fun and hours of obsessing over Ink Blot Designed Onesies & Ink Blot T-shirts to my shop as well as Ink Blot T-shirt Design Kits to make your own (great party idea!!)

In my non-sewing time, I love to spend time with family, outside by the beach, on a hike through the green Washington forests or curled up with a good movie and popcorn. I also enjoy spending time with kids, who allow me to see the world through their eyes with their enthusiasm and carefree spirits.

I am so happy I have the opportunity to do what I love and am grateful for the support of a wonderful husband who has patience with my obsessions and ramblings about fabric, ink blots and washcloths, and loves me anyway.

Thanks for stopping by!
