Maureen Singer's childhood days were spent in Minnesota. The oldest of three girls, she was in a leadership role right out of the crib. Her mother loved to dress all three of them alike. One particular Sunday she said, “I just cannot go to church looking like the rest of you.” That comment took her and her mother to the fabric store where her passion for sewing was ignited. Uniqueness and perfecting the task at hand were always the underlying thread to all her mother taught her—along with basic sewing skills.

 

Maureen is the mother of 7 beautiful children; five daughters and two sons. They are the reason a “home-based” business was a perfect fit for her. She was able to stay home with her children and still attend the field trips and school functions.

 In 1993, she launched “Singer Sewing Room”.She attended some of Cheryl Strickland’s classes and was eager for education. She has taught sewing classes to young girls and has also taught Home Dec classes at a local fabric store in St. Louis. She enjoys teaching to a room full of students who want to learn about roman shades and pillows and ways to decorate their personal spaces.

Maureen is a member of the St. Louis WCAA local chapter, and is a past President of the WCAA chapter, and has attended the CWC Conferences. Maureen is in a great position and loves what she does. Connecting with new people and helping them to create beautiful rooms in their home—one room at a time is something she enjoys. She is thankful for the talent and favor of God in her life.
