Advice

  • I have been doing all needlework since I was 7 years old. I enjoy it every day. My Mother taught me and it has become my life ever since. I will always love that she introduced me to my passion.
  • My stitching tip is to stitch whatever you love. All areas of handwork are meshing together with wonderful fibers and stitches. If you love the piece you are working on whether it is cross stitch, needlepoint, knitting, crewel or any other form your life will be forever enriched. I also have found that all stitchers are wonderful friends.

Dominant Themes of Designs - What Inspires You?

Everything inspires me. I love to imagine. Imagination is my favorite word. I also learn and am inspired by all the beautiful stitching I see each and every day.

Share About a Special or Popular Design

This is a hard one to answer. Being a designer I send my thoughts and design out into the world and enjoy how they come to life. They become the stitcher. Its that wonderful ripple effect. never know where a design will go.

Format of Designs / Stitching Level

I encourage all skill level of stitchers. I will never discourage any stitcher - your work is YOU - skills will be learned by doing, be yourself with your stitching.
