Needlecraft

This work is  created with yarn and thread in embroidery, crochet, weaving, and mixed methods. The process is quite meditative and absorbing.  Hours go by- each pieces takes months to create.  I start with a blank surface and the work develops intuitively; each step leads to the next.  Although I have a general idea of where I'm going when I begin, the color and composition emerge and lead the way.
