Whimsicals began in 1997 when Terri Degenkolb and her mom Jackie Conaway tightly closed their eyes and took a plunge of faith. Jackie wasmore proficient with the traditional quilting style, while Terri, being a doodler and tactile person, added whimsy with the applique shapes and woolen textures. So, in 1997, Whimsicals was born on a whim and a prayer, when they combined different skills and styles to publish their first set of primitive patterns.
