Introducing Mary Johnston, whose dream came true with the opening of Inn Stitches

From an early age, my dream has always been to run a quilting retreat—and I’m so grateful it’s come true! Helping others discover or renew their love of the craft fills my heart with joy. In high school, I discovered my love for sewing—it just clicked with my personality and talents. From there, I earned a degree in Home Economics with an Art minor. Now in my free time, I fit in as much sewing and quilting as possible.

 

My professional life mainly entailed working in the field of interior design. But I also have always had an interest in historic buildings and served as a visitor assistant at two museums residing in historic houses—Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum and Charles Allis Art Museum, both in Milwaukee. 

 

May your stay at Inn Stitches be as inspiring and invigorating for you as it is for me to run the retreat!
