| Introduction | I was fortunate to be born into a theatrical family where needlework and costuming was a way of life. As a teacher in the textile arts, it is my constant joy to nurture and encourage others to develop their creativity and to build a network of skills that leads them to both, personal satisfaction and often, public appreciation. As times goes on, I find I am leaning more towards developing my personal work where individual style and originality is of the utmost importance to me.I find I am constantly challenging myself, striving and sometimes struggling to " think outside of the box". |
