Like many, my journey into the world of fiber arts was passed on to me by my grandmother. She taught me to crochet before I started school. At age eight, I learned to knit as my first 4-H project. It did not take me long to learn that fiber arts were like those mystery chocolates we used to get for Valentine’s Day. You just had to keep trying one after another, with each one more delectable than the last. Now, 35 years later, I have an impressive list of different techniques in many mediums, most of which I learned by dabbling…..and there is nothing wrong with that. I still like to dabble, only now it is with purpose, and I think it has made me better as an artist.
