The Pattern Artist

The Pattern Artist

Born into a life of hard work, English housemaid Annie Wood arrives in New York City in 1911 with her wealthy mistress. Wide-eyed with the possibilities America has to offer, Annie wonders if thereâ€™s more for her than a life of service. Annie chooses to risk everything, taps into courage she never knew she had, and goes off on her own, finding employment in the sewing department at Macyâ€™s. While at Macyâ€™s Annie catches the eye of a salesman at the Butterick Pattern Company. Through determination, hard work, and Godâ€™s leading, Annie discovers a hidden gift: she is a talented fashion designerâ€”a pattern artist of the highest degree. As she runs from ghosts of the past and focuses on the future, Annie enters a creative world that takes her to the fashion houses of Paris and into a life of adventure, purpose, and love.
