I'm a wife, mom, recovering academic and writer. My avocation is fashion design and sewing. I blog about style, sewing and travel. Over the past 30 years, I've written over a dozen books, both nonfiction and more recently, women's fiction. I am passionate about the role of performing arts in our society. After living for many years on Canada's east coast, I now make my home inn Toronto. Learn more about Patricia here: http://patriciajparsons.com
