About Us

How it All Started 

The first Quick Curve Ruler and pattern Urban Escape were sold in 2011.  Since then thousands of Quick Curve Rulers and QCR patterns have been sold worldwide to quilters who have fallen in love with curved piecing using the easy cutting techniques with the Quick Curve Ruler. 

Since 2011 we have created 3 additional piecing rulers, 4 square-up rulers, 3 long-arm ruler guides, 3 collections of fabric with FreeSpirit Fabrics, 7 books, and 100+ patterns! We love combining curved piecing with straight line piecing to give variety and beauty to patchwork.  

Sisters

Jenny & Helen 

Jenny made her first quilt in 2002 and fell in love with the quilting process!  Jenny is married with 6 children and lives in Everett, WA and some of her favorite things to do besides quilting are, spending time with her family, anything to do with home decor and working out at the gym.  In 2007 she started her own long-arm quilting business in order to work from home.  Jenny has a unique ability to see the secondary design that can be created with quilting which gives the perfect compliment to the piecing.  After 7 years of quilting for others full time Jenny was looking for a change and discovered the Modern Online Quilting Community.  She fell in love and soon after started playing with pattern design which is now her new quilting love.  Jenny loves the challenge of putting a twist on quilting, whether it be through design, color or quilting and loves that she can share her quilting passion with her sisters. 

Helen admits to a little craziness when it comes to things she loves! Some of her loves include 51 recipe books, 64 pairs of shoes (and counting), 5 kids, 6 adorable grandchildren, 7 sewing machines, bolts and bolts of fabric, and 100s of fat quarters! Helen has been sewing since 1973 when she made a pair of pale green polyester pants in 4-H club! Helen began quilting in 1997 and fell in love with the entire process of design, fabric shopping, piecing and quilting! Nine years ago Helen bought a long-arm Gammill classic and fell in love with quilting all over again because she could put the finishing flourish on her piles and piles of quilt tops that were waiting for that last layer of love.

In 2011 Helen and Jenny began to create together as co-founders of Sew Kind of Wonderful. The curved piecing and contemporary designs in their work has made quilting fun, quick and easy for quilters everywhere!

We hope our easy approach to quilting inspires you to add curves and angles to your sewing which will bring movement and interest to your projects!
