aBCdesign is a home business that began as a hobby in our basement over 25 years ago. 



After graduating from Georgetown University and having several fun jobs in publishing and advertising, I got married and had three wonderful children. A stay-at-home mother, I began to pursue my interests in sewing, crafting and the arts. I had the desire to create special and unique personalized baby gifts using materials of the finest quality. With attention to detail and using classic and whimsical designs I created myself, I began to appliqué bibs, blankets and towels for my family and friends. Soon they were asking me to make them for their family and friends. Within months, and merely by word of mouth, people were calling from all over to order their favorite baby gifts. How thrilling to have created a line of products that was applauded by so many as being pretty and practical, a favorite gift to give and receive, a keepsake gift with lasting value.

Through the years, aBCdesign continues to grow and improve, offering our customers a wide fabric and pattern selection. With personal service and a commitment to create products of premium level quality, we promise our customers handcrafted, made-to-order specialty gifts that baby and parents adore now and treasure for years to come. Our products are competitively priced, consistently made with expert craftsmanship and creatively designed just for you.

Thank you for your interest in aBCdesign. We are excited to launch our web site and hope you enjoy your visit. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions.
