Meet Hope Yoder

I want to introduce myself. My name is Hope Yoder and I am an avid machine embroiderer, crafter, and Sewist. I am also the owner of Designs By Hope Yoder, a machine Embroidery company specializing in designs for the home sewing industry and the face of Craft-N-Cut™ software. I have recently teamed up with America’s leading stabilizer and software company producing a new line of embroidery, sewing and crafting products under the label Embellish™ which includes a new embroidery software program called Embellish Maker™.

For the past 15 years, my team and I have been traveling the country. We host hands-on sewing, embroidery and crafting events. When I’m not on the road traveling and teaching, I write for various sewing and embroidery magazines. I have the privilege of meeting talented people, like Alex Anderson. If you don’t know her, she is as AWESOME as her quilting! When we attend shows together, I am amazed and can’t stop staring at her lovely quilts.

Last year, I received a call from Craig with Blank Quilting Corporation. He introduced himself and asked if I was interested in having my own line of fabric. I must admit, I thought I was being punked. He went on to tell me he heard from several stores and influencers that they should ask me to design a line of fabric that would work for machine embroiderers. I was honored and said, “Sure! Why not?”. Jumping to present day, my first line of fabric is called “Roses & Arrows” and my 2^nd and 3^rd lines will be released this year. It’s so very exciting to have my first line of fabric with more on the way. My youngest daughter, Olivia, went with me to Quilt Market last fall and was the inspiration and artist behind “Sun N Soil” which is my second line of fabric.
