My name is Amanda Serrentino and I live with my husband and two boxer dogs in Midland, TX. I am currently studying for my MBA at the University of North Texas. My husband’s job has moved us around Texas these past couple of years, which is when I decided to pick up sewing as a hobby. My dream is to create a closet-full and house-full made of homemade wares, and this space is meant to document my progress.

This blog is named after our first dog-daughter, Blanca Pate.

You can contact me anytime at blancapate.blog (at) gmail (dot) com. I’d love to hear from you! You can also follow me on Twitter at @sewblancapate, or take a look at my inspiration on Pinterest at aserrentino. :)
