My name is Melanie Schwank.  I am a stay at home mother of two beautiful boys, Jackson and Cooper.  Baby Schwank Designs is the product of my need for a creative outlet.  I received an embroidery machine as a very generous gift and began to personalize gifts for friends.  Soon, those friends began to ask me to personalize things for them and it just grew from there.  I was given the gift of sewing by my mother, so this was a great way to be creative as well as earn a few spending dollars.  Luckily, I am blessed with a very supportive husband who doesn't complain too much about my new found passion.  I hope that you enjoy my products as much as I enjoy making them for you.
