Nancy Langdon is the best author on sewing for me. She puts her heart into every work she does, whether it's a book or a piece of sewn clothing. Besides being the president and principal designer for Studio Tantrum, she's also a woman who has a soft heart for children. You can see how deeply in love she is with her work as a writer.
