Susan Pennington Stewart fell in love with fabric and sewing before she started elementary school! Heirloom sewing by machine techniques computerized machine embroidery are her specialties. She designed, stitched, and wrote for Sew Beautiful magazine for many years, and has taught around the country. Susan says the following about her years working with Martha Pullen and Sew Beautiful, "From 1990 to 2005 I worked free-lance, although essentially full-time, for Martha Pullen Co., as a primary designer for Sew Beautiful magazine, all of her other publications, and for “Martha’s Sewing Room” PBS TV show, on which I was also a guest. I have created many of the techniques made popular by her endeavors. My column 'Sue Says…' in Sew Beautiful magazine, which I wrote for 8 years, was shown in a reader survey to be one of the most popular features of the magazine, and I have had scores of feature articles. I had two articles published in Zig Zag magazine, and made the cover garments for two issues of Sew News magazine. Ten years ago I wrote Easy Elegance, a book with heirloom sewing techniques and patterns. I taught at the Martha Pullen School of Art Fashion in Huntsville, AL over 30 times, at Pfaff and Viking Conventions, and for guilds."
