Hi, I'm Lindsay Conner, an editor, writer and crafter based in Indianapolis. After college, I started sewing stuffed toys, quilts and custom creations for friends and family--some from patterns, others from scratch. I blog at LindsaySews.com and love creating tutorials and patterns for colorful, modern quilts. In my free time, I love to travel with my husband Matt and scavenge the racks of Target for good deals. I also do a lot of freelance writing and I love to hear other people's stories and write about them. For tips on running your handmade business, even more tutorials and weekly giveaways, stop by my blog CraftBuds.com.
