Autorenporträt
Margaret John Jankowski is a writer, maker, and nonprofit leader living in Madison, Wisconsin. She is the founder and director of The Sewing Machine Project. A lifelong sewist, Margaret's mind is "on fire" when she is planning a project in three dimensions. The Sewing Machine Project represents the intersection of Margaret's passions as it provides the opportunity to sew, serve, and write about the incredible individuals she encounters. Margaret divides her time between her home in Wisconsin and Switzerland, where she spends time with her husband, Peter. Margaret finds deep joy in traveling, reading, walking with friends, and sitting and laughing on the front porch with her two kids.
