Vickie's love of fibers, wool and folk art is apparent in each of the 60+ patterns she has designed for her company Annie's Keepsakes, celebrating its 20-year anniversary in 2010!
Vickie's unique projects have appeared in magazines across the nation and abroad, and she brings her easy-going style and award-winning expertise to each of her lectures, classes and workshops.

Vickie began
sewing and creating at the age of 5 when her mother began teaching her how
to make doll clothes. She started her company "Annie's
Keepsakes", (named after her mother and daughter) in 1990, as a way
to continue her love of designing and staying home with her children.
Annie's Keepsakes has been growing steadily and is now distributed
throughout the United States and abroad.
