Kristine PoorKristine Poor, started Poorhouse Quilt Designs in September 2006, after designing the Sampler Tote as a gift for a family member. The tote was a hit, and a pattern company was born. She has a degree in Engineering and a love of fabri; these seemingly conflicting pursuits have come together. She works with Jean Johnson (mom/pattern editor/creative assistant) to develop patterns that are a canvas for your creativity. www.poorhousequiltdesigns.com Read More Read Less
