It all began with a Girl Scout badge.

I learned to crochet.

Then I played with thread, yarn and hooks.

I tried following patterns. I hate following someone else’s pattern.

Owning a yarn shop opened doors into spinning yarn, weaving, and dyeing. I have never been the same.

After a lifetime spent playing, it is time to be serious about regularly creating art.

I hope what I do inspires you to play and make art too.
