Simply Silk, by Mary Jo Hiney, is a compilation of sewn projects, many of a quilted nature, some with a focus on journaling as art. They are meant to fill you with inspiration and confidence urging you to create with silk and dispelling any preconceived notions or fears. Even though 'silk' conjures up an air of exclusivity, I want you to know that silk is for you and for your projects.

About the AuthorMary Jo's love for sewing and fabric is a gift from her mother and it was Mary JO's sister who introduced her to the world of quilts. Owners of Mary JO Hiney Designs and creator of Silk Adaptation, Mary JO has been in the sewing, quilting and crafting industries since 1993 when the opportunity to design projects for book and magazine publishers lead to the authoring of numerous titles. Before that, Mary JO was the owner of Something Special, Made By Hand, a manufacturer of handmade gifts and decorative accessories sold to the gift market. Mary JO has a degree from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, having received the noteworthy Peacock Award upon graduation.

Mary JO is encouraged by these hopeful words that all of us can be what we are meant to be.
