Jackie’s love of fabric began at an early age when she learned to sew doll clothes on a Singer foot pedal machine.  Fabric remained a large part of her life as she embarked on a successful, award winning career in Interior Design.  In addition to being one of the country’s leading experts of soft furnishings for the home, Jackie was the recipient of the Rising Design Star Award by the International Window Coverings Association in 2007 and has several books on home décor to her credit.

Jackie’s design is rooted in classic style with a fresh modern approach.  She is greatly influenced by her travels where she and her husband visit museums, galleries, gardens, markets and architectural landmarks.  Antique fabrics, botanical prints and etchings are also a source of inspiration for Jackie.  Embellishments and attention to detail are one of the hallmarks of her style and is evident in all of her artwork.  

Jackie’s artwork has been licensed in Wall Art, Fabric, Tabletop, Home Accessories, Garden Accessories, Giftware and now Quilt Fabric for Northcott.
