I live in the countryside in Vermont, in a valley surrounded by mountains, the Appalachian Trail, and beautiful farmland. I have lived all over the country, and in other parts of the world, but have found my home in …this beautiful state! I am very inspired by my surroundings and landscape. My color palette echos the colors I see outside my window.

I have been sewing for about 17 years, it is my passion.

I make everything by hand in my studio. I use my own patterns for some of my designs, others are cut and sewn free form, in a range of sizes. I offer many of my designs in custom sizing, to help you get a great fit.

I am also a weaver. I have a large floor loom in my home studio, and I also apprentice at a local weaving mill. I use a couple of smaller frame looms for experimental and artistic pieces. These will slowly become a part of my etsy shop here. You can see some works in progress on my Instagram, @thimbleandacorn

In my free time I like to tend to my gardens (lots of vegetable, and some flower), preserve the bounty through canning and freezing, swim in the lake, play lawn games (but I hate mowing the lawn!) and running. I also spend my free time soap making, making pottery, and learning about natural dyeing.
