Deborah Moebes writes Whipstitch, a blog about modern sewing. After a decade as a schoolteacher and a short career as an archaeologist, Deborah stumbled (kinda backward) into sewing and has never looked back. She's the author of two books, Stitch by Stitch and the upcoming Stitch Savvy, and owns a modern sewing lounge in Atlanta, Georgia. She also has four kids, a husband, a (lovely but largely imagined) garden, a fantastic mid-century modern ranch (which is the subject of many a Pinterest post), a dog and (soon to be, if the children get their way) two fish. She firmly believes that sewing is for everyone, and that you'll learn the most if you jump in with both feet and give it a shot?even if you?re not quite sure what you're doing. She is also quite adamant that everything ought to have pockets. Currently, Deborah is polishing up plans for the release of her new book, sewing almost constantly for her new house, and working her way through a wall quilt featuring Tony Danza.
