Mandy Shaw is one of Britain's most talented and respected sewing
and quilt designers with a worldwide reputation for her work.
Passionate about sewing and quilting for as long as she can
remember Mandy started her business, Dandelion Designs, in 2004 as
a way of making a little money whilst bringing up her young kids at
home. Little did she know what it would grow into.
Mandy is the author of more than 12 bestselling books including
Stitch with Love, Simply Redwork and Say it with a Stitch. In total
her books have sold over 100,000 copies worldwide and have been
published in six different languages. Mandy also designs fabrics
including her The Little Things... range by Henry Glass. As well as
this she teaches and is a regular on TV and at sewing events in the
UK and the USA.
A great collector of things, Mandy draws inspiration from vintage
books and paraphernalia. Her desire is for everything she designs
to tell a story and be meaningful. Over the years, she has
developed a unique folk art style all of her own and is drawn to a
red, white and taupe colour palette for which she has become
famous.
Mandy lives in East Sussex, England with family (both human and
animal). She runs Dandelion Designs from the bottom of her Garden
in a wooden chalet built for her by her husband Phil specially to
house her business and her workshop.
