Publications Featuring My Designs

I have been fortunate to have my painting, rug hooking, and needle punch designs featured in these magazines, books, and e-zine articles.

Create & Decorate Magazine

Each issue of Create & Decorate is packed with great crafting and stitching ideas & projects, and free patterns with all the instructions. This magazine just keeps getting better & better!

I thoroughly enjoy designing rug hooking and Russian needle punch embroidery projects for each issue of Create & Decorate.  And be sure to catch my feature column, 'Gardening Notions', in each issue.

New book available mid-May 2008. Working as a contracted designer, II designed and created the models for the 50 states in needle punch. I also wrote the instructions for the designs. Each design in the Coast to Coast in Punch Needle book is about 8 x 8 inches and includes the state map outline, state bird, flower and tree, state name and date the state was admitted to the Union. We worked on this book for about a year and a half, and it is beautiful . . . order yours today from my Needle Punch - Supplies page.
