About the Artist
My name is Buffy and I am a Chicago based illustrator, designer, fiber artist, and product developer. I have professional experience in a variety of industries, including giftware, home decor, apparel, publishing, toys and gaming, and even courtroom sketching! When stepping away from the screen, I enjoy hand embroidery, knitting, needle felting, drawing and of course doing puzzles. Now with our Handmade by Buffy shop I hope to marry my side projects with my work experience to create products others can enjoy as well.

Behind the scenes
As my cohort and "enabler", my sister, Lynn, is based in Northern Wisconsin. She plays a huge supportive role with the Handmade by Buffy shop as brainstormer and sounding board -she gives a lot of the inspiration behind subject matter and promotions! She has experience in retail, customer service, and management which brings focus on the point-of-sales perspective of running our shop. As we grow to live events you'll also see her behind the table selling our products.
NOTE: We are not interested in consultations or solicitations. Serious inquiries about our products or services only.
THE INTERN (Aka our mascot)
"I don't know if we're getting too old, but I swear these interns look like babies these days"
Actually this is our grandbaby, Asher, born in March. Newly promoted to mascot/model for shameless promotions.
