Hello, Im a retired school teacher who loves cycling, pilates, art music, my Portuguese waterdog, family and travel. I spend a lot of time creating with rusty bits, dye, fabric, nature, thread and many different kinds of textiles. I also needle felt, and quilt however Im done with quilting for a while as all grand babies have quilts now. My biggest challenges are framing my finished pieces. I like very different frames and am trying to do unusual things with frames.
