The Girl Behind the Shirts

Hi! It's me, Sarah Goerke, the girl behind the shirts. I'm so happy that you're here!

Sarah Goerke Designs started by accident if I'm being honest.

In Feburary of 2020 I lost my job of 7.5 years. The timing is right in line with the pandemic, but the business closing was not due to COVID. I decided to embrace my situation and give the 'stay at home mom' life a go! My two boys, Maveryk and Vaunn, were 3 years old and 3 months old at the time. 

Fast forward a year, I found myself with more time to spend enjoying things that I loved to do. One of those things being crafting. I bought myself a Cricut and a heat press and made myself a "boy mama" crewneck sweatshirt. I LOVED how it turned out. 

Me proudly posting a selfie of the shirt turned into about 20 friends who wanted me to make them as well. Those were my first orders, and they haven't stopped since!

Things in life have changed since then. I now work full-time managing a boutique, my boys are older, and we seem to get busier by the day. 

My small business has grown so much. I cherish it and my customers beyond measure and never overlook how incredible it is to be able to create what I do in my basement while my boys run around. I know there are so many options to pick from when buying a graphic shirt and I hope you know that every order that comes through means the world to me and my little family!

How it all began
