Why Health Tips?

Updated: May 1, 2023

Yes, you're in the right place, this is a quilting blog, but my prior career was as a nurse practitioner in women's health and as a certified nurse midwife. If I can use that knowledge and experience to help quilters be healthier, why not?

When we take good care of ourselves - physically, mentally, socially, and emotionally - we live fuller lives and I certainly want that for you. Our health also affects those around us. As mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, partners, spouses, colleagues, and dear friends, we are better able to love and give when we are healthy. Furthermore, our health habits influence others, so when we live healthier lives, they will too. In essence, taking care of ourselves, makes the world a better place. So yes it may be a little strange that I share health tips on a quilting blog but understanding how to live a healthy life has always been such a part of me that I hope you'll find that sharing health tips and quilting tips all fits together.


Happy Quilting and here's to good taking good care of ourselves!

Hi! I'm Jen, a quilt pattern designer, instructor, and founder of Snapdragon Quilting. I started Snapdragon Quilting in the spring of 2022 in memory of my beloved Grandma Louise—a talented seamstress, passionate crafter, and devoted gardener whose snapdragons inspired the company name.

I've been sewing for as long as I can remember and began designing my own quilts in 2006. Today, I create quilt patterns that combine bold color and modern design with approachable techniques and clear instructions. I love exploring different fabric combinations and layouts, so you'll often find multiple colorways and design options within my patterns.

Whether you're stitching your very first quilt or your hundredth, my goal is to help you create something beautiful while enjoying the process along the way. Welcome—I'm so glad you're here.
