We would like to introduce you to Amy Bruecken, formerly half of “Sisters and Best Friends”, she now designs by herself under the title of “Amy Bruecken Designs”. For those that were fans of her “Sisters” designs, you will recognize the same fun and funky style in her designs.

Amy learned a love of counted cross stitch from her mother Sandra, who operated a needlework shop. In 1994 Amy and her sister started “Sisters and Best Friends” with 6 designs, and grew from there! They had 13 successful years to share their creativity with each other before splitting off to form their own companies a year ago. Since then, Amy has designed more of her cute designs that stitchers love!

Amy, along with husband Bill live in Toledo, Ohio. Their sons are grown, one recently graduated from Ohio State, and the other is still finishing his degree at the same college. She says that both of her sons grew up in the industry, and they could even tell you what “over two” means! We would like to thank Amy for her fabulous designs! This month all charts and embellishments by Amy Bruecken Designs will be on sale! Here are a few of her designs, click here to see them all!
