- Where did you learn your textile skills?
- Learned crochet as a child. Took quilting classes starting in the late 90's, the most memorable and influential workshop was with Caryl Bryer Fallert. Worked at a LYS/LQS for several years where I learned to knit and expanded my quilting knowledge. Embroidery and crazy quilting has been mainly self-taught, with lots of inspiration from blogs and Quilting Arts magazine. Sharon Boggon's websites have been especially helpful and influential on my recent embroidery work.

Hi Marie, thank you for your kind comments.
I love your Lichen, I think french knots are great worked in different sizes. Your Brittle Starfish is beautiful and so delicate.
Happy stitching
Rosemary
