Craig Conover
Craig Conover is a fan favorite on Bravo’s hit reality series, Southern Charm.
Mocked during filming for his enthusiasm for sewing, Craig has turned his previous pastime into a full-time career with his co-founding of Sewing Down South: a growing southern-based ‘Sewing Lifestyle Brand’.
Sewing Down South, originally rooted in downtown Charleston, is proudly extending its reach with the opening of a new retail store in Nashville, nestled within the vibrant shopping district of 12 South. And its reach has transcended regional boundaries, as evidenced by its national presence through a collaborative home decor collection with Kroger Family Stores.
Hailing from Fenwick Island, Delaware, Craig remains extremely close with his parents & brother. His domestic skills were further honed after a thyroid cancer diagnosis for his mother drew Craig home to help care for her. His mother’s health scare inspired him to create a collection of all iodine-free meals to aid her recovery. That’s right, he cooks and sews!
Craig often lends a hand to military causes and uses his platform to bring attention to philanthropic organizations closest to his heart. Through Sewing Down South, Craig was able to raise over $25,000 for rescue and relief efforts for those suffering from Hurricane Dorian.
A board-certified attorney, Craig is a graduate of College of Charleston and Charleston Law School. He also hosts a popular podcast (Pillows & Beer) and is the author of a top-rated memoir “Pillow Talk: What’s Wrong with My Sewing?”
Craig will appear on stage (time TBD) both Friday, January 31st and Saturday, February 1st.
