In the beginning...
It started with a crazy idea that's now grown into a full-blown passion. This is me, the Mad Woman herself.

Embroidery Passion

The Mad Woman of Locke Street is my husband's nickname for me.

We live on Locke Street (a small tourist area in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, full of little antique shops, restaurants and bars). I work out of my 'Lab' as he calls it in the loft.

Trained as a graphic artist, I was a partner in a very successful catering business for 14 years!!! (yes I know... go figure!!)

I reached a point where I was fed up with getting up at 4:15 am every day. Then my partner became very ill, (now recovered thank God) and we decided it was a sign to pack it in. What to do??

The Embroidery business I decided, that's it!! I bought the machine, and started to look for designs.

I couldn't find what I wanted.

I became a Grandmother, and wanted to make everything for my beautiful baby granddaughter, (the first of five beautiful grandchildren)...

I still couldn't find what I wanted. So I started to design.

The idea for my web site was beginning to creep into my brain. How to start? I was completely computer illiterate, it seemed insurmountable. My old business partner's son very kindly and patiently came to the rescue. It took us a year.

Then November 2004, The Mad Woman of Locke Street was born.

Now, in order to speed up the delivery process, a new site has been developed that concentrates just on Embroidery, Mad Woman Embroidery.

The aim of this site is to supply designs that are different, humorous and beautiful.

All set of designs on the site are available for instant digital download, as is thier freebie.The individual designs in these sets are available(where noted)from our sister site by zip file in an email.The SINGLE designs on this site are also available for instant digital download
