“I am Maureen. A stay-at-home mother of three, a lover of all things crafty and creative, and I make things by hand, at home in small town Pennsylvania.” Maureen Cracknell lives in small town Potter Country, Pennsylvania. She is a mother, wife, blogger, quilter, and lover of all things creative and handmade.
Just a little over four years ago she started sewing and blogging at Maureen Cracknell Handmade; a simple, positive, and creative blog where she loves to share her projects, fabric stashes, sewing, and special family moments. Two years into blogging, she opened a Facebook page with intentions to share and connect with people who, like her, live with a passion to sew and quilt—most of who follow her blog, which has been supported and grown to over eighty thousand followers. These supporters continually give her encouragement and the opportunity to follow her path of creating and sharing.
She’s been a proud member of several fabric manufacturer design teams throughout the years, including Art Gallery Fabric’s popular Fat Quarter Gang, and continues to work as an Independent Designer for Janome Sewing Machines. She is incredibly grateful for each of the opportunities that have led her where to where she is today!

" My Favorite prints are Heartfelt Reflection, and Folkhouse Dreams! Both prints feel sentimental, reminiscent of carefree childhood days spent exploring around the yard and woods, building forts, making "stew" out of things foraged, picking wildflower bouquets to bring home, and long Summer days spent creating endless adventures."

In 2004, our desire to bring a chic and modern perspective to the quilting industry is what inspired us to start Art Gallery Fabrics. Since then creativity, beauty, and design have been our passion. And to this day, they have not changed.
When it comes to designing a collection we always keep originality and uniqueness on the top of our list. We have the pleasure of working with a talented design team who creates enticing color palettes and artful, intricate prints that make our collections one of a kind. Art Gallery designs fabrics that keep up with ongoing trends and at the same time it encourages our customers to use new colors and pattern s so they venture out of their usual comfort zone. Designs that evoke style with a statement of color. A quality that sets us apart.
