When
Bonnie Martin was 11 years old, she took a sewing class and it
became her passion. Bonnie’s been
creating ever since! There are so many things that have inspired her
designs - shapes, colors, textures, photos, keys, flowers - pretty
much anything and everything. She spends every free moment looking
for treasures at fabric stores, garage sales and antique shops.
Though Bonnie Martin was formally educated as a
Registered Nurse, she decided to create Bonnie Martin Designs to
allow her to blend the two most important things in her life – being
available to her children by working out of her home and designing
"wearable art." It has been a thrill for Bonnie to watch the
business grow. She now has a very loyal following in Austin, Dallas,
and Houston and constantly gets inquiries from around the country,
including from Los Angeles, New York, and Santa Fe. One of the most
rewarding aspects of her success has been that she’s had the
opportunity to employ other women to help with production, giving
them the same chance to work from their homes so that they too can
be available to their children.
Enjoy Bonnie’s creations!
