When I was fifteen years old, I decided that I wanted to learn every major textile art to the point where I could design and make something without a published pattern.  I’m not doing too badly--I started with sewing and moved on to needlepoint, cross stitch, blackwork and other embroidery, then knitting, spinning, crochet, and weaving.  I’ve got many more to learn!

 

My patterns as of this writing have always been free with the understanding that no one else can sell their results OR make up kits including my pattern.  If you do make something from one of my patterns, I’d LOVE to see pics.  Feel free to comment, compliment, or critique, too!

 

Patterns of mine you might have seen:  the Pac-Man Scarf, a linen Market Bag, and the Summer Dice Bag.
