Kerry Goulder
Kerry Goulder has been sewing for fun since she can remember. After a sculpture class in college, a wedding and two children, Kerry began designing many unique patterns under her Kid Giddy® label, and wrote her first book, Sewing Tales to Stitch and Love: 18 Toy Patterns for the Storytelling Sewist, with F+W Media. Kerry's company motto is to "add more giddy to your life." This is a constant reminder to have fun and to do things that make you happy, which, of course, means more sewing and crafting. Kerry lives in Southern Maine with her husband and their two daughters. When she's not sewing, she loves to read, run and is training for her third degree black belt in Shaolin Kempo Karate. See her contributions to the Little House on the Prairie website below.
