Meet the Hen & Chicks Studio Staff

We want you to get to know the people you 'see' as well as those who are working behind the scenes.  We have a great team that works hard to make sure we are giving our customers the best experiences, inspiration, and service!

 




Heidi Kaisand
Hen & Chicks Studio, Owner

After a more than 30-year professional quilting career, and more than 40 years of crafting (including being a 10-year 4H member), owner, Heidi Kaisand, decided to combine her experience and passion for inspiring creativity in others into a new business venture. Heidi indulges her creative spirit at Hen & Chicks Studio by helping individuals and groups succeed at quilting, scrap booking, and other art forms.

When Heidi's not working, she loves to spend time with her family (Jeff, Henry, Virginia and Goldie), sewing and scrap booking as often as possible.
