Meet our second victim in the

rundown.

Name: Stephanie Ohnmacht

Years designing: Sewing since I was seven.

Bio: At seven I was given a beat-up sewing machine, scrap fabric and a license to sew anything I could dream of. Since my sisters on the farm were uncooperative models, I turned my designing skills to the animals and dolls, who were soon sporting some of the latest fashion designs. Sewing became my passion, much to the joy of any local fabric store. I fed this passion by competing in 4-H competitions for ten years during my youth.

I am currently a successful professional providing marketing and business strategy advice to Fortune 500 companies. I have been seeking a way to marry my professional success with my passion for fashion. My home office desk is a testament to this with the prominent placement of my laptop, sewing machine, and a stack of Vogue and Threads magazines. I try to share my passion by teaching design and construction to my interested friends, even my boyfriend. I sew every chance I get and love the renewal that working on my projects creates in me.
