Jen is the author of five sewing and quilting books released with four different publishers. The books’ focus on a range of technique and styles and are created to instruct and empower the reader.
Jen is the inventor, developer, trademark-holder, and distributor of the Seamingly Accurate Seam Guide. The seam guide eliminates the need for tape or marking on the domestic sewing machine and serves as a reference point when creating all types of seam allowances.
Working in Adobe Creative Cloud/Suite, primarily in Illustrator and Photoshop, Jen creates technical diagrams and proposals for upcoming creative endeavors. She also has experience developing media in In Design, XD, Rush, and Premiere.
