![about us about us](images/hdr/about-us.gif)
Patricia Ann Designs was born on New Years Day, 2004 and has been flourishing by leaps and bounds ever since!! I am Shelley Ann and my mom is Mary Patricia (aka Pat). We are the Patricia and the Ann of Patricia Ann Designs! My mom and I began this venture starting out like many successful businesses ~ out of our garage! All we had were a couple of sewing machines, scissors, thread and some great fabric! But, after just a few short months, our demand grew and so did we!!
Our preparation began long before now! Family, passion and creativity were always in our genes and creating a family-centered business was always a dream for us! Attention to detail, hard work, and the importance of family above all else are the core values I learned from my mom and am now passing on to my children.
Shortly after d�buting Patricia Ann Designs, our husbands, Paul and Dana, became involved in our little business ~ each taking on different areas in their expertise. Even my grandmother, Alice helps us maintain our product quality control and pre-cuts our satin ribbon for us! And of course, my three incredible children are an ongoing source of passion and inspiration to us all. They're our best customers!! Patricia Ann Designs is definitely a family affair and we wouldn't have it any other way!
We proudly create every item right here in Orange County, California with the assistance of a wonderful family-owned cutting and sewing house. So our customers can feel confident that they are buying an item made in the USA with love, care and pride. This also allows us to have an incredibly fast production time, allowing for a prompt delivery to our distributors and customers.
