About Sew Happiness

Hi there! My name is Trudy. I have been part of the fabric industry and passionate about fabric my entire life. I love everything that fabric stands for, from the different designers to everything you can make with your sewing machine. Sewing will always be one of my life's greatest passions.

It has long been my dream to create and sell homemade goods which are now offered at Sew Happiness, including tote bags, pouches, trivets, table runners and of course face masks! 

I first started making face masks for my family and friends when I heard that quilting cotton fabric was perfect for making face masks as this pandemic became a part of our lives.  As there was a face mask shortage I wanted to help by offering affordable face masks for you. I read that quilting-weight cotton is one of the recommended fabrics because of the tight weave of the fabric, so I instantly went from being a “fabric hoarder” to “being prepared” by having quilting cottons of so many different beautiful designs. From travel prints to flowers and animal prints to dapper men’s designs. Thus Sew Happiness was created!

Enjoy, Trudy
