Here at Susie C Shore Designs, we're helping make your house a HOME! For our sewing, quilting and crafting enthusiasts an exclusive collection of whimsical patterns. Because we believe sewing should be a fun experience, we design each pattern with simplicity and practicality in mind, providing easy to follow, step-by-step instructions that will ensure your success. From hot pads and quilts to wall hangings, table toppers and more, we hope you’ll find something to inspire your creative spirit. We're always adding new designs, so be sure to check back with us often!
Susie is turning 75 soon, so we at Susie's have decided to make some big changes as a result!
Throughout our 35-year history of pattern creation, we have always made our pattern designs available to distributors and direct-buy customers alike as hard-copy. But during and after the pandemic, we found that many shops were closed (some of which never reopened again), so we started converting our older patterns to PDF format (better known as downloadable) for better availability and easier delivery to direct-buy customers. PDF patterns have no shipping charges, and they are delivered within seconds once the "Place Order" button is pressed - customers just need to be sure to check their spam or trash file on the e-mail address associated with the order. This approach has worked so well for our direct-buy customers that we have decided that (effective 03/01/2025), all of our NEW pattern releases will be made available in PDF (I.e., downloadable) format only.
Thank you for visiting!

We sell our products to several mail order companies/vendors; they generally sell our patterns for a season or two and then move onto newer designs (including ours). It's come to our attention that when these vendors deplete their stock of our patterns, they will tell their customer that the pattern has been discontinued - yes discontinued with them - BUT not by us. These vendors rarely reveal the originating company name in their catalog/web site, so if you're looking for our products, the best thing to do is to check our web site to see if the pattern is still listed on the pattern pages - if it is, it's still available!
I just wanted to let you know I made 60+ Who place mats..we used them at our wrap up luncheon when we were done counting the new Burrows, and the baby owls we had this season...the burrowing owl are endangered, they live under ground, and lay an egg every few days...they only stand 8-9 inches tops and weigh just ounces.... their babies are all different ages because of the egg laying at different times they all hatch at different times....we have educated the public and it wasa surprise we went from 5-6 owls to over 400 in 5 years..people want them burrowing in their yards...just to keep an eye on them....and as for your place mats..they are wonderful..the pattern was wonderful...no 2 owls were the same...I must thank you..those place mats are just a little symbol of just how far these owls have come....thank you again, Judy Nee, Marco Island, Fl....
Wow Judy...That's great news!!!
I am so happy that our little owl patterns have helped to save the baby owls and to educate the public!!! I will share your pictures and story on Face Book maybe it will inspire others! Your finished Owls look great too!
A few people have asked for "U-Tube Tutorials." We do not do video tutorials; the written instructions when followed are actually the tutorials. We have, however, started to add "visual aids" for unique processes under the "Tutorial" section on our web site - you'll need to scroll down to the project you're working on to find the pictures. We just started to add these "visuals aids" late in 2018 and now moving into 2019. Hope they help! Susie says she doesn't want to do videos because her age spots might show -- That's our Susie!
Thank you again for your support & Sew Happy!
