About The Owner: Kim Olson
I have had a passion for sewing and crafting most of my life. In 1996 I went to work at the Bent Needle in Astoria, OR where I learned computerized embroidery. This is where my passion for computerized embroidery started, still as a young adult I went on to explore other things in life.
In 1998 I became a mother to a son and soon after decided to take on working in an office setting as an administrative assistant and gaining many new passions and a whole lot of knowledge while working for Construction Workforce, Inc. (CWI) During that time with CWI I learned graphic design and as part of my employment there, I worked with creating fliers, banners, business cards, magazine and news paper ads using many programs to design the different projects that were asked of me.
In 2001 the company had downsized and at that time I had my son that had just turned 3 and a daughter that was just under a year old. I left the company and went on to working in customer service for a few years. Many of the jobs that I really knew I was qualified for I neglected to apply for because the minimum education requirement would be an associate degree. So, in 2007 I decided that I was going to continue to work as a bartender and get my associates degree in Business Accounting.
In 2011 I went to work for Teevin Bros Land & Timber where I worked as a log accountant until I left in April 2024. Meanwhile, in March of 2023 I decided to open my own business specializing in computerized embroidery, permanent and heat transfer vinyl cutting and application, wood burning and metal engraving. Starting this business was my way of putting my passion and hobbies to good use for the community to enjoy with an excellent quality product that is produced locally.
I am willing to put my all into every job to make it special no matter how big or small the job is. my process to getting you the perfect product is to speak with you through direct contact so that I can get all details and information needed to get you the perfect product that you want, therefore I do not offer online ordering or designing. Once I have spoken to you and understand what you are wanting, I get to work on designing and getting a sample proof for you to approve before I proceed. Call me anytime! 503 440-0808
