Teresa Miller, a designer with 15 years of experience, is known for her quick and simple little designs. She is the owner of Teresa’s Primitive Treasures, and her Etsy shop is a treasure trove for craft enthusiasts – offering a wide range of patterns and kits for hooked rugs, wool applique, punch needle, cross stitch, and stitcheries. Since 2015, Teresa’s design patterns have been published in every issue of Punch Needle and Primitive Stitchers magazine.

She has been crafting since 1989, expanding from sewing for a local gift shop to her business today which includes wooden wares handmade by her husband and son. The boxes and wood pieces are perfect for project finishing and storage. Teresa is always seeking new ways to showcase and complete handwork on wood.
