About this episode
Erin Grogan is the pattern designer and founder of Love Sew Modern. She was introduced to sewing by her grandmother, a professional seamstress. As a child, Erin would fill a notebook with fashion designs and dream of growing up to become a clothing designer. On her many summer visits, Erin and her grandmother would go to Hancock Fabrics to get material and together they would sew her school wardrobe for the next year. These precious moments sparked her love for design. In 2017 Erin took her first trip to a modern quilt shop. Surrounded by all the bright and bold fabrics and modern quilts she knew in that moment she wanted to become a quilter. In January of 2020 Erin left her corporate job to focus on growing her dream, Love Sew Modern. Not only is Erin a pattern designer, but she is a sewing educator as well, teaching and instructing at conferences, guilds and in her own home.
