Textile Jewelry

I live in Carroll County where my husband and I have three almost-grown children. With a decade of my childhood spent in Tokyo, a History degree from Swarthmore College, and five recent years lived in Germany, I've been a Japanese translator, fitness instructor, framer, Business English teacher, reading tutor, and now Student-Tutor Coordinator at the Literacy Council of Carroll County.

And now I am creating jewelry! Since my first cross-stitch tea towel at age seven, I've spent thousands of hours absorbed in crochet, sewing, knitting or needlepoint. I am fascinated by combinations of stones, textiles, metals, and glass and am brimming with ideas for projects that contrast and enhance the beauty of these ordinary life elements.
