Mustard Seed Designs

Patsy and Edwin Sasek

Our Business

We began our art and our work together when we were married in 1994. Our card business, Mustard Seed Designs, was founded on the desire to create cards that were sensitive to those who might not be getting well physically and to those who were grieving. 

The selection of our cards has increased to include cards for all occasions, and life celebrations. Our original watercolors are reproduced on the front of each card to make them a unique and creative way to remember and honor those special people in our lives.

We also want to show our concern for the environment, so we use recycled paper and envelopes. 

We give a donation to ABODE Contemplative Care for the Dying from the sale of some of our cards. www.abodehome.org

Who We Are

We met doing hospice work in Uvalde, TX.

Edwin was doing an internship from Taos, NM and I was working as the Volunteer Coordinator for the local hospice.

Both artists, we were drawn to each other and the beauty of the Texas Hill Country. 

Recently, Edwin has just retired a Chaplain for a local hospice. He will still be conducting celebrations of life and serving as a grief couselor. Edwin is a certified spiritual director,  an artist, photographer and poet. 

I work as visual artist, free-lance graphic artist and Public Relations and Marketing Manager  doing graphics for Camerata San Antonio, and other non profits.

Together we founded a non-profit called ABODE Contemplative Care for the Dying, a no cost home for those in need at the end of life.

Most recently, in February of this year we combined our talents by opening a Mustard Seed Designs Gallery with our partner Kathy Cody Gallaway who owns Intermezzo Gallery at a beautiful space called Las Almas, which means "The Souls!" It is a light filled natural space, rustic yet refined that embraces our shared phylosophy of providing a place where local and regional artists can show their work, where all gift items are made by artisans from Texas or are Fair Trade items. We support non-profits in the community and part of our proceeds will benefit the ABODE Home.
