I am a thrifty crafter and general DIYer, as well as artist and salesperson. I love learning and teaching skills for self-sufficiency. My strong suit is crafting, mending, and constructing long-lasting and durable clothing items and accessories. I love crochet and can teach beginner up to expert level stitches and technique. I have been crocheting and hand sewing for 23 of my 31 years. I also teach basic clothing-survival sewing, patching and button reattaching for absolute beginners.

I have a rambunctious 5 year old son who constantly hones my teaching and mending skills.
