Cathy Callahan

Raised by a super-crafty mom in suburban Southern California during the 60s-70s, Cathy Callahan can't help but be influenced by the crafts and design of that period. She gets inspiration for her work from her constantly expanding collection of vintage craft books and magazines. Cathy has appeared on the Martha Stewart Show and her work has been featured in Sunset, Los Angeles Times, New York Times, and Craft Magazine. Her products have been sold at shops such as Tinsel Trading, Curiosity Shoppe, Reform School and the MOCA store. She also sells her crafts at indie craft fairs such as Renegade Craft Fair and Felt Club. Cathy has contributed to several craft books such as "Crafting a Meaningful Home" by Meg Mateo Ilasco and "Applique Your Way" by Kayte Terry. "Vintage Craft Workshop" is her first book.
