Bead Weaving, Bead Embroidery, Textile Art

Working with computers for many years made me yearn for the unique and handmade. As a child I had been an avid beader, sewer, embroiderer and dabbler. I spent hours sewing clothes and accessories for tiny dolls that I created out of clothespins. I missed the excitement of that process, and I started spending many of my evening hours after work creating beaded and embroidered items. Some years later I decided to start selling my many creations, and I ended up here at etsy.
