Meya2s Artist Bio - Mary E Pongonis

Mary E. Pongonis – inventor, jeweler, quilter, dressmaker, photographer.

I began creating clothing in the 60’s, while living on Long Island, NY and continued to do so for myself and family.

My unique designs are created in my Studio (201 Cony Street, Augusta, ME), which is open to the public by chance or by appointment. Two business web sites “seapo creations.com” and “meya2s.com” (me-ya-twos) are maintained for each of my primary passions, quilting and crafting jewelry, respectively.

My jewelry can also be seen at the Archipelago in Rockland, ME, Kennebec River Artisans in Hallowell, ME, and the eclectic boutique Koko Boudreaux in Leawood, KS.

Meya2s have been featured in the Kennebec Journal (Augusta, ME newspaper), the Morning Sentinel (Waterville, ME newspaper) and in the “Produce News” section of the December 2005 issue of Lapidary Journal Magazine.

My right-angled pierced-ear wire design evolved from a single Design Patent application to the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to three applications, covering each of the loop styles; inward, outward and sideward. On November 21, 2006 each of my three pierced-ear wire designs was granted a Design Patent.

I am a mother of three daughters and one son, currently residing in Augusta, Maine with my husband Philip Stacy, and our youngest daughter.
