Ericka Wright

Owner/Designer

For as long as I can remember, I have loved to design. At first, it was for my Barbies and then as I got older if was for me. Sewing and design really grew into a passion for me when I became an aunt and then a mother. I still remember those first feelings of accomplishment, joy and the amazement of seeing my little girl in the clothes that I had lovingly made for her. Happily, that feeling has never disappeared. Violette Field Threads has become my ultimate creative outlet, where I still get to experience the joys of sewing for my daughter and now I also get to experience seeing the joy through other moms, grandmas and aunts eyes as they learn to sew and create for their loved ones. In addition to sewing and design, I also love to travel and spend time with my husband and three children I live in a quaint town in Tennessee, just minutes from my best friend and co-owner of VFT, Jessica.

Much more than a utilitarian skill, to me sewing is a visual expression of creativity and a tangible outworking of love. I learned to sew when my fiancé purchased me my first machine as a surprise. An unconventional gift, and who could have known what that surprise would lead to!

That was over 15 years ago! In 2010, Ericka and I started making our own patterns when we couldn’t find patterns for the designs we sketched out of paper.

We hope to include you in our Violette Field Threads family and teach you to sew and create all sorts of beautiful pieces to fill your little one’s closet.

Designer

I had only been sewing children's clothing for 1 year when I was introduced to Violette Field Threads Pattern Company by a friend, and fell in love. Designing has always been a dream of mine, and I'm so proud to be a part of this incredible team. The pleasure I have when creating a design and sewing it up for my daughters, and seeing others do so is indescribable. I also enjoy the photography side of designing, capturing the details of each design is so much fun! I couldn't ask for a more fulfilling occupation. I live in a small country town in Mississippi, along with my three gorgeous daughters. I enjoy the outdoors, photography, and designing of course.
