An artist in love with fibers and the natural beauty of the earth we live in...

A walk in the woods reveals new exciting color combos to bring to you through my fiber arts.

I have over 40 years of fiber experience,starting at age 5,learning to knit.
My knitting always has looked different,and someone told me the other day that Im a continental knitter!Dont know how that happened but its just been passed down from generation to generation in my family.

Sewing,embroidery and quilting were next,as everything that was made was used in daily life.

Older family members were gracious enough to pass on the skills they had learned from their mothers and grandmothers.

My Grandfather was a apprentice weaver as a boy.

I learned to spin at age 23 and just kept on going! :] I made a Jack Loom at age 24 just to see how the whole thing worked!

All my batts are made on my Pat Green Elsa Card.I was excited to travel to Canada to pick up my Elsa Card and Triple Picker from Mr. and Mrs. Green.

For those of you who dont know, Mrs. Green is AKA Paula Simmons,American Spinning Icon and author of many books on spinning,weaving,raising sheep,and even cooking! Paula is an important figure in the home spinning and weaving revival that started in the 1970's
