Learn all about her below!

On Halloween of 1978 began the life of Elisabeth DeMoo. This craft-o-holic is obsessed with textiles and making things. Most days, you can find her in her sewing room in Tucson, AZ, where she almost always has at least 10 projects scattered about. Growing up on a family farm in New Mexico gave her a love for keeping busy. As a child, she loved drawing and was active in 4-H where she took baking, dairy, ceramics, and sewing classes. She graduated college with a degree in visual communication and worked as a graphic designer at a Marketing Agency in Texas for 5 years. Then returned to working for her family farm and freelancing as a graphic designer.

Elisabeth's Workspace

While she was in college, quilting was introduced to her. She fell in love with all of its possibilities and decided to build a passion project around it. She created Brown Bird Designs in 2012, which is her little corner of the world. There she shares the patterns she designs, learns techniques, and studies the quilting industry. Her goal is to share her progress, creations, and knowledge about the art of quilting.

Elisabeth's first project as a Michael Miller Brand Ambassador

"Garden Star 5 Quilt" using Coco and Cotton Couture fabrics.

She works to cultivate a community of creatives that want to find projects and join challenges by sharing their progress. Through the years, she has worked with companies like the Moda Bakeshop, Craftsy, Blue Print, Patchwork Love and Quilting, Riley Blake Designs, and more. Her dream is to design fabric and create a full-time quilting business.
