Headshot-a.p.Hello! I'm Andrea, the owner of Go To Design, a company focused on the arts and handmade living. Thank you for stopping by!

I love designing! Whether it is sewing patterns or graphic design I thoroughly enjoy all things creative!

You can find me on my creative blog, The Train To Crazy, where I have been writing since 2008. I sharehandmade fashion, decor, recipes and am always trying to inspire and teach bloggers how to get the most from their platform.

I'm also the proud mother of four children and wife to an amazing man. We have lived all over the United States and are currently living in Southern California where I get to wear flip flops and sweaters year round.

In 2012, Go To Patterns was born from my desire to create basic yet fun sewing patterns that sewists would find to truly be "go to" patterns. Shortly after opening her shop she began accepting the patterns of other designers and Go To Patterns became a curated sewing pattern shop. Each pattern meets the high quality stardads required to be a "go to" pattern.

Go To Sew, an inspirational sewing blog, was born in 2013. This site is committed to writing and curating the best sewing content on the web. You can look forward to well written tutorials, fantastic featured projects, contests and lots of inspiration. 

My custom design business focuses on Media Kits and graphics for bloggers wanting to put their best foot forward. Come see what Go To Design can do to help you win brands and advertisers' trust and commitment. 

Let me know how I can help you!
