I am a textile historian, award-winning crochet designer, writer, collector of textile production/embellishment tools and the 2020 Crochet Guild of America Hall of Fame inductee. I indulge in many techniques, but my favorites are thread crochet and seed beading. Additionally, I am a rockhound and love it when I can combine found or purchased rocks with my thread- or bead-work.
