About this episode
My guest today is Sue Penn. She loves to sew and she’s been passionate about art and creativity since childhood. Encouraged by her grandmother, who generously supported her artistic development, she studied drawing and painting for years. In her early twenties, she discovered a deep love for sewing, quilting, and textile arts, which ultimately led to a career in fabric design spanning nearly 28 years. She’s known for her use of color designing Free Spirit Fabrics, beginning with bold and bright acrylic-painted backgrounds that she enhances with stencils, stamps, embossing, and hand-printed papers. These fabrics are gorgeous! You can get an instant visual of all of her latest fabrics online at Sue Penn with on Etsy.
