About the Authors

When sewing industry veterans Snez Babic and Janice Wray joined forces in the fall of 1998 to form a partnership that catered to the world of high tech sewing and machine embroidery, their idea was simple: "We knew from our professional experience that sewers and crafters are always looking for well designed project ideas. Plus, we knew that they draw a tremendous amount of satisfaction from making projects for the home and gifts for others. We decided to focus our efforts not only on offering beautiful machine embroidery designs, but on projects to make with those designs." They did just that with the online embroidery business, The Gift You Make.

Today, Snez Babic and Janice Wray continue their professional partnership with this fun collection of table top ideas. Their collaboration of knowledge and skills in sewing, machine embroidery, digitizing, design, illustration, photography, instructional writing, and layout has allowed them to created what is sure to be a helpful and inspiring resource for making table linens of all types, all year round.
