Gracie Mae's Story
Hi friends! Welcome to Gracie Mae’s Designs. My name is Barb, and I’m the owner and designer of my small sewing business. Gracie Mae’s Designs was started in March 2025 from my love of sewing, fabrics, and creativity, and named after my daughter Gracie, age 10, who has spent 8.5 years fighting brain tumors (bilateral optic pathway gliomas) and my best friend Nicolle (lovingly referred to as NikNik by Gracie).
Everything is Handmade!
Every piece is made with love and attention to detail. Barb uses premium cotton fabric and soft batting, complemented by beautiful lace and durable grosgrain ribbon, ensuring each creation is as high-quality as it is unique.
Giving Back
At Gracie Mae’s Designs, every purchase helps me handcraft and donate port pillows to children battling cancer through Charlie’s Champions Childhood Cancer Foundation. These small pillows protect their chemo ports during everyday life, bringing comfort and love when it’s needed most. Thank you for helping me give back — no one fights alone!
