About Trish
I’m the mother of twins, hence the “two peas” and a newborn singleton. I have a career background in natural resources and law enforcement and have worked for 12 years as a park ranger and police officer. I gave it up – too hectic for family life – and now work at a university with students who want to be park rangers and other cool things.
I’ve been married for over 10 years to my very own park ranger and we live on a sweet little spread out in the country just down the road from the park where he works.
Sewing is my “other” job and I’ve been crafting, designing and creating since I was about 6 years old. I’ve really been enjoying showing my twins how to sew lately. Thanks for stopping by our “studio”.

Wow! I would love to be a park ranger. We’ve traveled all over the country staying in parks. We homeschool and there’s always a great ranger program going on.

My former SIL and wife are expecting twins in April, i am excited, even tho I will not be related. Going to be making them quilts. My older grandson liives with them. He turned 13 on Nov. 7. He is a wonderful GS. His younger brother lives with my daugther (my olny child0. HE IS 4 AND MY STEP-GRANDSON IS 5 AND BOTHER SHARE THE NAME sean – didn’t mean to use caps! My typing skills have much to be desired.
My new SIL is wonderful also. Soo, I am indeed a very happy gran-gran. Oldest grandson visits My daughther and family every other weekend. They go skiing, sailing, mtn. climbing,etc. Do not get to see them very often, even tho we only like a few miles apart., not my choice. Long story, but suffice it to say, I have Chrhoc Fatigue Syndrome.
Hug those two sweet little peas. My grand sons are called sweat peas.
Hug

Trish! Thanks so much for the package! What a surprise. I’ve been meaning to say thanks ever since I got it- I love the extras! Life has been kicked up a notch with me going back to work full-time and a half. The twins are 7 months old now. Amazing how time flies! I’m thinking it’s not going to slow down any time soon either! Thanks again for the stuff. I love it!

Trish,
Such fun Friday evening….the Trunk Show was a great success! My family and friends who attended REALLY loved your work! Everytime the girls wear their dresses, they get tons of compliments. Just wait til the masses see my my new “Charlie’! I need to stop over and get some of your business cards to hand out when someone asks..”where’d you buy that dress, bag, et al”? I’m so thrilled to watch your talent evolve – a beautiful gift you have!
xo,Julia

Trish, thank you again for making Zoey & Ruby’s Easter dresses (and on such short notice). They are fabulous! I’m sharing the news of your incredible talent with all my friends and family. Can’t wait to have the Trunk Party! Btw, I wanted to post feedback on Etsy, but haven’t figured out how to do it yet. Do I have to ’sign on’ as a member?
Oh, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, beautiful Sophia!!

Not sure what you mean by website – URL, I am not computer literate yet.
Really enjoy your blog, so cheerful and uplifting. Will be back frequently. Congrats on your twins. You must be a tad busy.
Thanks for sharing your site with us.
Helen!
