For many of us, our first M'Fay Pattern was our introduction to professional drapery making. It's amazing that such an extensive collection of instructional manuals and patterns all started because of one woman's thought that someone ought to be making them!

In this podcast, Marylan Borchardt and family talk about her initial interest in sewing, the early days working within her sister's business, the development of her first pattern (The Empire) and the growth of the M'Fay Pattern Company. They are joined by Jeanelle Dech of Adaptive Textiles who recently acquired the patterns, and shares with us her vision of the future.

I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas, a Happy Hanukah and a Happy and Prosperous New Year! I look forward to hosting more podcasts in 2017!
