About Me

1IMG_0744-21

Hello and welcome to Sewlicious Home Decor, my name is Marti.  I am the the creator, author, and owner.  I’m also a mom, nana, Christian, sister, daughter, and cat mama.

I started this blog in 2012 as a way to keep a journal of my sewing projects.  I began displaying my work by creating sewing tutorials, then quickly realized that I wanted to teach others how to sew and create crafts, while I learned, too. That inspired me to begin creating more things that I love in order to teach and inspire others.

I started sewing when I was 15 and began doing DIY’s and crafts when I started this website in 2012. I do not call myself an expert in anyway. Everything I have posted on my blog has been self-taught and I’m still learning, including photography, professional baking, and website design.

The picture above is of me and my daughter with her new baby.  She is on baby number two, which means I have two grand-babies.  <3

I am experiencing all the new and wonderful things about being a Nana….it has been heavenly and rewarding. I love spending time with them and my family every chance I get.

This is my precious Ragdoll, Callie. She is 10-years old and the love of my life.  I have worked with cat rescue groups and provided care for many kitties who would have otherwise been put down at animal shelters.  I fell in love with each and everyone of them so I always made sure they were being adopted by families who would take good care of them.  I’ve always had a love for Ragdoll’s and when I came across Callie from a breeders website it was love at first sight.

I’m in the process now of becoming a Ragdoll breeder and cannot wait to get my first litter.
