History:

I began my career in the Fiber Arts as a weaver in 1985, added spinning in 1989, Being I wanted quality angora I invested in my own rabbitry in 1990. I kept between 20 and 30 top of the line Angoras. I specialized in German and German Hybrids Angoras and also some French and English.

I was Vice-President of IAGARB from 1998 to 2006. I wrote many articles on different subjects to do with Angoras.

In 2000 I had to under go extensive back surgery so was no longer capable of taking care of the bunnies. So had to give that portion of the business up and focus on spinning, dyeing, knitting, felting and weaving.
I have done extensive weaving and ceremonial garments for a Decon. Clothing lines and home furnishings and felted hats. I have been a member of Detroit Handweavers and Spinners for 20 years.

I have taught dyeing, designer yarns and weaving for many years at various shows and private classes. I am a member of Spinners Flock in Chelsea, Michigan and continue to work their shows each year for the past 9 years. I worked Fiberfest in Michigan and Ohio, Michigan Fiber Festival and also West Branch for many years. I have judged sheep and angora fleeces in the past. I have also done lectures to the open public on fiber related subjects. I have won many awards for booths, weaving, and spinning. I continue to be an avid follower of the Fiber Arts.
