Cheryl, General Manager of Michigan Sewing Company

Please meet Cheryl. She has been Recollection’s Shipping Supervisor - overseeing quality control, pressing, hand sewing, and shipping. Recently Cheryl was promoted to General Manager of a new sister company to Recollections – “The Michigan Sewing Company”, which is located in Cheboygan, Michigan, about an hour away from Recollection’s offices. Currently Recollections and Steampunk Threads are the new company’s primary clients.

She has been married for over twenty years to “an all around good guy, her soul mate.”  They have two dogs and are continually working on remodeling projects.  She likes being creative and expressing her imaginative ideas in her home and in her art.  She says all of the walls in her house are painted different colors and she likes expressing herself in unusual artistic ways.    Cheryl has her own workshop where she creates unique wood art too.  Once an owner of a floral shop, she crafts interesting, creative flower beds around her home as well.  She is definitely an imaginative, inspired woman!

Cheryl has worked with children in the Big Sisters program, Strong-Safe Family Program, Vacation Bible School, Sunday school classes, and has mentored special needs children.  She possesses the gift to connect with kids of all ages tenderly. 

She enjoys seeing the bundles of supplies come in and their transformation into the beautiful finished garments that are shipped out.  Cheryl likes the busy “go, go, go pace” of working for Recollections, her kindhearted coworkers, and being able to contribute to the creation of such beautiful products.  She says, “It’s a fun place to work!”
