Minki Kim lives in Southern California with her husband and three daughters.  A formally trained artist, she has always loved to draw.  When she discovered that she could draw with her sewing machine she began incorporating her drawings in many of her projects, a technique she calls Sewing Illustration.  Minki has several books: Sew Illustrated with 36 charming fabric and thread designs (co-authored with Kristin Esser), Diary in Stitches, Zakka from the Heart and Zakka Wool Applique.  She contributes regularly to publications worldwide.

When not sewing, Minki enjoys capturing her kids and her quiet little town and trying to recreate them through her fabric designs.
