I am an author, photographer and freelance designer, married 34 years, mother of six amazing children, grandmother of two.

My creative interests are writing, photography, photoshop, watercolor, calligraphy, baking, cake decorating, sewing, quilting, pattern design, embroidery, tatting, knitting, crochet, gardening, woodworking, jewelry making and many more.

Some day I hope to work with stained glass, glass blowing, hooked rugs, silversmithing and many more.

All photos are mine of my hand work. I find flickr is the easiest way to share my work with my family and friends from around the country.

I am the author of Tiny Treats, published by American Girl.

I am one of the contributors to

Making Books and Journals, including the Pear Book featured on the cover.

Every day is a gift from God.
