I have been crafting since I was a kid. I love quilting, embroidery, cross stitch, knitting and crochet. I am starting to branch into sewing, too!

By day, I teach Spanish to college students. I also teach beginning quilting and intermediate crochet classes at my local yarn/fabric shop some weeknights.

You can find me on Ravelry as manosa. I have two blogs: one dedicated to crochet (www.crochetyourway.com) and a more personal one for all of my crafts (lamanosa.blogspot.com)
