Part of the joy of creating is playing with color, pattern and texture. I find inspiration in combining these elements from current fashion trends but most often from less obvious sources such as architectural moldings, fine art and pottery, fabric design, vintage clothing and jewelry, to name a few. In turn, the ingenuity other crafters bring to their work, be it through the incorporation of found and unusual components, profound subject matter or tremendous skill level is energizing.

Below are my newest designs some of which have been published by outside sources and others that are self-published. All self-published designs are available as patterns on ETSY (follow the link on this website) and/or Ravelry. Kits will be available in 2026 for selected designs.
