Profile Information
- What textiles are you interested in?
- My love is for natural textiles and hand stitching.
- Where did you learn your textile skills?
- Everywhere I have been for as long as I can remember I have noticed and learned about cloth and ways to manipulate and embellish it, but I also took a textile art courses at a local collage some years ago.
- Is there anything else you'd like other members of Stitchin' Fingers to know about you? Please feel free to tell us a little bit about yourself by way of introduction.
- I love to experiment with fibers and textile techniques and to design my own patterns and projects. I value good craftsmanship but I am not a rule follower. My main interests just now are sashiko stitching and Japanese patchwork, and I own a design business and on line retail store which focus on these.

Carol-Anne said… Hi Susan, welcome to stitchin Fingers. Thank you for your contribution to the Festival of Needles discussion. I have read a few articles about Hari-Kuyo but I think this is the nicest one. I have read it before but could not find it again so I am thrilled that you thought to copy it.
