I am a 4th generation fiber artist living in Hendersonville, NC. I have been crocheting since childhood and have been making stuffed and 3-dimensional works in yarn and fabric for over 40 years. More often than not, I can be found working on my whimsical mixed media and freeform crochet bird and bear sculptures or my lace and figurative crochet earrings.
