jewelry tutorials, sculpt polymer clay figures, dragons, beads, charms and dolls, sew garments, quilts &amp; home decor and even make the occasional scrapbook page, card or paper craft. Crafting, sewing and making things with my hands have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I\u2019ve often been asked to teach my crafts, and have found I love doing so. My online tutorials, in PDF and video, as far as I\u2019m concerned, are the ultimate teaching tools. Be sure to subscribe so you don\u2019t miss a thing. It\u2019s my hope that with every post you will come away enriched and inspired to take what you\u2019ve learned and make it your own.
