When a friend taught me to hook my first rug in 2006, I knew one day I would be in business. Fifteen years later and semi-retired, I am still designing patterns and hooking models for my designs. I had a wool shop in my home and taught classes for a number of years but have now closed my shop. I prefer a primitive style in my hooking, combining the love of primitive decor and my background as an antiques dealer. Most of the time you can find my rugs displayed as art on my walls or gracing an old primitive work table in my studio.

My husband retired this past year and we plan to travel in our new 5th-wheel camper. Of course, my frame, hook, wool, and cutter will be traveling along!
