     As a professional educator for twenty years, my passion was teaching reading and literacy skills to Kindergarten through fourth grade students. I enjoyed passing on my love of books and the written word to these children through my teaching and our daily classroom activities. The students' unceasing love of books was an inspiration to me on a daily basis.

     Over one hundred of my original sewing, quilting, and stitchery projects and articles have been published in the past decade in sewing books, on sewing industry blogs, and in sewing and crafting magazines distributed nationally and internationally. Here is a sample of my published work.

     A Californian since age six, I enjoy reading, writing, walking, visiting botanical gardens and parks, photography, touring historic homes and museums, cooking, designing, sewing, quilting, sewing for charity, crafting, and hand-embroidery.
